Can anyone share the mindset shifts that happened as they started to truly enjoy the PROCESS?

I've been running into a bit of a limiting belief where I'm afraid to let go and be happy in the moment and enjoy the process because I feel like I'll lose drive.

(I feel like I'm starting to shift by realizing that the happier I am, the better work I can do, but I don't think I'm there yet)

I thought hearing some other people's mindset shifts might help me as well as other people in the same boat as me.
