I used to spend all day programming, but on things I would have little control over the direction of. I enjoyed it, but like many jobs, it often got monotonous, boring or frustrating, although I did enjoy it for the most part.
During that time I always had a hobby project I'd work on. Something that involved emerging tech or something I hadn't done before. Those hobby projects kept me motivated to do the other work as it gave me that dose of interesting work I needed to keep me going on the work I was less motivated to do.
