you can’t get bored if you’re curious about how stuff works. just keep a note with things you’re curious about & any time you’re getting bored, look up something on the list. the knowledge might not lead anywhere directly but later on it might be connected to something relevant

if nothing else, make room to celebrate yourself as often as you need to—your skills, your gifts, your assets, all deserve to be praised and seen, even if you’re the one doing it.
