How do you maintain the work ethic you had when you were struggling

I guess that's what separates you from ordinary people

I don't, honestly. I busted my ass of after graduating at my first job. I'd come in at 6AM and work hard to 5-7 PM and coming in on weekends. My bosses loved my hard work and dedication and I got a promotion, raises, my own office. I still come in early but I take long lunches and dick around a lot, but it still looks like I'm busting my ass off.

I'm sure if I got a new job elsewhere I'd bust my ass again until I established myself at my new employer but I'd probably get lazy once again.

Change your perspective for what is comfortable, like I don't get why people get comfortable when they get a "stable" income, then get loans, buy stuff they can't afford , and start a family. You're basically imprisoning yourself finacially.
Live to work, not work to live, till I can make that a reality I will focus on money.
And when I reached that point I can work on my own projects on my own pace.
