Think of the most annoying × least intelligent person you've ever met. Imagine that they have become a multi-millionaire, and are standing over your shoulder, watching you do leetcode. Right as you want to give up, you tell them this, and they say to you, "Have fun staying poor." That feeling right there? Channel that into Leetcode. Your fist is your keyboard, their face is a working solution. Vindictive spite is a very powerful motivator, even when it originates from fictional situations. The trick is to channel it into productivity instead of negativity.
