So , what is boring for one person (steve), may be awesome for someone else...such is the beauty of different peoples perceptions on what is awesome and what is boring
For a person who has been clinically depressed for 20 years...the goal of being happier is an awesome thing to attain.
For the person who has been living in a shoebox for the last 20 years because of financial hardship...moving to a new location and a better apartment is an awesome feat.
etc.
Awesome is in the eye of the beholder.
