MODERATORS
There is no secret sauce here. Either you choose to persevere against the un-enjoyable-ness, or you don't. If this bothers you this much, try to find strategies for coping such as: lowering your expectations (perfection brings tedium and tedium is the enjoyment killer), shrinking your scope (less work, less chance of drowning in the enormity of the project), recommit to goals with rigor (sometimes you just gotta suck it up even if it isn't enjoyable and you want that reward/payoff).
