How do you all stay motivated when your job feels frivolous? I'm well paid and my job is fine but if nobody did it the world would not suffer. I'm not against capitalism, just kind of tired of "business" I guess.

My motivation is my pay. The fact that if I did not work I would not be able to afford my lifestyle. I look back on jobs I have had and think to myself would I still be happy with where I am. I check in with myself and ask what would be my reason for quitting today if I quit? Normally it's something that would stand as an issue rather I'm doing this or something else, so I push on. I balance that With enjoying my life outside of work
