-Nothing is beyond my reach, if I really want to do. This is learned, not self-assurance.
-If a task is found stupid/meaningless: some others indeed see things differently. I usually interpret the requirement/guideline too straight, too logic, too conventional, too inflexible or anything else....that discourage myself to work. My interpretation and their intention mismatch. In some cases, I am committing to a perfect but impossible intention while ignoring the best plausible solution.
-I think about the future direction. The clearer it gets, the more real the inspiration gets. The success in future will depend on two legs: people skills and expertise. These two are intertwined.
