From my ~15 years of experience, if there is just one advice I could give to someone starting their career as a software developer: irrespective of whether your work is exciting or not as much, it is a joy in itself to keep working on improving your craft, which is writing software systems. Excellence is always a moving target, but if you stop working on your craft, the joy you will experience as you become senior and older, will keep decreasing.
