good tasks bad tasks
Pursuing a passion isn't the ability to do the things you like. It's the willingness to do the things you hate for a cause that you care about.
The action itself isn't important. It's the reason why you act that determines whether you will feel awesome or shitty.
You can either see your homework as a meaningless barrier to the party you're trying to go to or see it as an important part of a learning journey that you care about. Same actions, different reasons, different feelings.
That's the power of mindset. You can trick your brain to think that your work is meaningful...if you mean it.
If you are working at a tobacco company, don't boast about improving people's lives. Tell yourself that your purpose is to feed your family. If you are just trying to make a shit ton of money, don't try to sugarcoat it with some fancy "transforming Vietnamese education" mission. Tell yourself that your purpose is to make learning more fun for your students while sustaining yourself financially.
If you give your work an authentic purpose, there will be no good tasks or bad tasks, there will only be tasks that need to be done.
