I used to despise washing dishes. Then I opened a food biz, and spent many hours washing dishes and listening to audio books.
Now I don't mind washing dishes. There's something very satisfying about tackling a pile of dirty dishes and having them all shiny and clean at the end. It's very Zen.
It helps that with great experience comes great speed. When others look at a destroyed kitchen and see hours of drudgery, I know that it will be beautiful in 15 minutes.
