Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?

Food for thought: the US is actually one of the most racially conscious places Iā€™ve ever lived. Not saying we donā€™t have a LONG way to go and that there isnā€™t immediate important work needed.
But the amount of allies this movement has is incredible. Keep in mind this is just my experience and may not represent others- however, in many of the other places Iā€™ve lived or traveled to, racism is almost tacitly accepted. You wouldnā€™t have people calling out taxi drivers for ignorance for example
