This is an interesting analogy, for me, it doesn't map though. I "believe", if you'll let me use that word, in code quality, so my attitude towards code quality is constant. I moved past the urge to knock out quick and crappy solutions as soon as I shifted my enjoyment from "getting a solution" to "getting the best solution I am capable of". That is, simply solving a problem doesn't feel good, I have to solve it as well as I can to get anything out of it.
