I have the opposite problem. Maybe we can help each other out.

I love starting a project, as it is new and exciting. I love finishing a project, because there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The middle is where I get stuck, when it's not new anymore, and there seems to be no end to the work. I've been told I need to appreciate the journey through the middle, but I've had problems with that. All I really care about is results and the bottom line.
