I don't, I just finally gained the willpower to get up and do shit even though I'm not motivated. Very often in life, you have to do shit you don't wanna do. This doesn't mean your life sucks and that you cannot find any joy in your day, this is simply a fact of life. Once you accept this and stop having feelings about it, it's 100% easier to go about your day. I don't think this is a modern day thing, either. I'm sure you could pick any time period in history and find a human that wasn't thrilled with the idea of getting up and doing XYZ thing that they had to do that day in order to survive.
