This is one reason you like programming more as you get more experienced. For beginners, debugging is mixed with fear. Oh no, my program doesn't work! When the fear recedes, debugging becomes not merely tolerable but pleasant.
I suppose debugging wouldn't be pleasant if I were more disciplined. "If I hadn't made these mistakes, I could be using my intellectual powers to the utmost, instead of wasting time fixing them," I should be saying (ideally in a German accent). But I'm not that disciplined.
