You might hate what you are doing in the short term but love what you will gain from doing that in the long term.

You might like the result (like a clean house) but hate starting the process. That's one possibility.

But you could also hate starting (a project for a job you hate) but you keep on doing it, ignoring those feelings, because we all have bills to pay.

I think the second one is what you need to be aware of.

Not really. The odds are if hating it now, the odds of you hating it forever are pretty high.

Actually a disturbed ego will hate doing a good thing, and love doing a bad thing. Thats the basis of affective disorders. Is it hate, or is it aversion? The spectrum of emotion isn't a simple thing, and i have seen people change.
