  That’s a very good question! Sometimes it can be hard to motivate myself to do boring tasks… Usually in this case, I either do it because it’s important for my team and I don’t want to let people down. Also I know that if I finish all the boring things then I might have free time to do more interesting extra things!

  I always feel really motivated at the start and end of a project but sometimes my motivation dips in the middle. Sometimes you just have to do things you might not want to but in general things are exciting enough to keep you motivated.
