More often than not, we come face to face with displeasing tasks (cleaning your room, tidying up the mess, washing dishes, working ten hours a day, going to school, etc) however, we drive ourselves to accomplish them, we force ourselves to do the task despite the fact that it is the least thing that we wish to do.
