I think it's a bit naive to think that the only reason for lack of focus on work is boredom or fatigue, and that it can be solved by loving your work.

I love my work, but wouldn't want to do it every waking moment. Also sometimes I hit a difficult bit of work and find it difficult to focus as I'm not progressing as quickly.

OK, let's put it differently - self-control to go on is required when there is not enough motivation.)

Surely GP was tongue-in-cheek?
