Two things I found useful for getting chores done:
1. Take focus off the strain and effort required for each task. Just envision the task getting done. It's like if we go on a hike, we don't think of or count each step to get to the top of the mountain - we just think of how great it'll feel when we're at the top. Learned this from the late Scott Adams.
2. Play music or podcast while doing the chore. Makes a boring experience much more pleasant.
Great advice! Sometimes I like to do the opposite and lock in on the strain and effort. Maybe that’s just masochistic but it makes me feel accomplished when it’s done.
