Exactly. It's about reframing the task so that it goes from tedious to fun. I know it is an old and probably out of fashion book now, but I really think a lot of people who feel stuck in dead end jobs should read Fish! by Stephen Lundin [0]

To reframe this from the 'musician' side of my life, a lot of other guitarists I play with absolutely hate changing the strings on their guitars. They treat it like a chore to be avoided and rushed through only when really needed.

But a few years ago, I read a short story about how Samurai warriors used to care and polish their sword blades on a regular basis. I was entranced by the ritual and ceremony around this mundane process, so I set up a similar process around my guitar string changes. Now I actually look forward to doing string changes, as it give me a lot of meditative time to bond and learn more about my instruments and my music.

Or, if you need a reminder of your capabilities, look at your current project and think of how much havoc you could wreak if you decided to go the nefarious route.

i.e. the sysadmin bringing down the company from within. The Web Developer commandeering his own botnet. The backend developer who makes a fortune mining doge coins. And so forth.
