I used to work at a factory after I got out of high school and found the repetitive tedium maddening. The only way I was able to continue working there after a while was to make a game of it. I competed against myself on quantity and quality and found other ways to challenge myself. I lasted 9 months but I would have quit after a week had it not been a game in my mind.

I learned that life is all about how you frame things in your mind. If you are creative you can use your mind to fight through anything.
