Does anybody feel like they’re actually good at maintenance? As in, healthy attitude, motivation, good dopamine loops around stuff like paperwork, chores, boring repairs where you learn nothing new, doctor appointments, code documentation, inbox clearing... What’s your secret?

There' something there, but I suspect it's not not that simple. You have to have a sense that what you have is worth preserving, which is an optimistic attitude towards it -- that it will be worth as much or more in the future. And there are pessimists who hate maintenance too.
