I think it's a question of point of view, you can actually tell yourself that studying is boring but you can also tell yourself that accumulating knowledge will open many doors for you in the future, the more you study, the more possibilities you will have at the end of your studies which will lead you to realize yourself more quickly, life is short so avoid wasting time.
On the other hand, you can have several lives in one life (no, I'm not talking about "lives" like in video games ^^), I just mean that what you are doing now will not necessarily be the same thing in 10 years or 20 years from now, life is a winding road that brings its share of good and bad things and we all have to deal with it, studies or not, luck and bad luck are part of the game, the education that we receive from our parents, the studies we conduct are just weapons to travel this path as easily as possible even if sometimes it does not seem to be the case.
Afterwards you must also realize that knowledge leads to reflection, to the emancipation of the mind and therefore to freedom, a powerful weapon that allows you to live serenely without having to endure too violently the classic patterns established or even to break them.
We must not forget that what symbolizes success for some is not necessarily the same thing for others. For some, a stable situation at all levels will be synonymous with success because it is reassuring, while for others who aspire to a more adventurous life (but more risky, you have to be aware of this) it will be quite the opposite because the weight of the daily routine will be an obstacle to their own development.
You will never be able to control chance or luck but for the rest, you are the master of your destiny.
Remember that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
Do not forget either that out of love for your loved ones and for their good, your parents, your wife, your children life will lead you to do things that you will not necessarily like and that is where the most important thing because it's a subtlety that we must not lose sight of, happiness and satisfaction also go through what we give to those we love, to give you an example before meeting my wife, I was earning very well my life, I had a great job but after a while I couldn't find my way around, I needed calm, today I earn a lot less in a rather boring job but that's not serious, I live in peace with just enough money to live but I am psychologically appeased and because I am well and I am happy in my life this affects my loved ones and in particular in my life as a couple and my family life, that's true happiness, as said above, you have to know how to be satisfied with simple things.
On the other hand, I don't know what tomorrow is made of but what I'm sure of is that in life things are temporary so with age and experience, I learned to enjoy the present moment, it doesn't prevent me from having problems but it taught me to take a step back and manage the unexpected with more serenity.
Life isn't just white or black, it's a gradation of gray going from the lightest to the darkest, you just have to keep the focus on the essential things and focus on the positive even if it's not not easy every day.
And then we're not going to lie to each other, if everything was easy, we'd be pissed off quickly, right?
