There are times that we must do what is needful. It may not be necessarily enjoyable in itself, but accomplishing it gives a sense of completion.
There are not a lot of tasks that don't need to be repeated over and over again. Most of the time our sense of accomplishment is really just a sense of relief to get that done, before it needs done again.
So it is good to tackle some things that we actually finish and they are done. They usually require a creative avenue, making something, building something, drawing something or writing something.
Everyone needs a bit of that in their lives, something they can complete and look back on as finished.
It may not be as spectacular as God's creation, but that bit of creativy comes from Him, so I think of this verse.
“Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
Genesis 1:31
Sometimes we need to not only be relieved that something is done, but sit back and appreciate it.
“Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.”
Genesis 2:1-3
Stay strong! Work, create and relax, all joys in their own right.
