You can build up your imagination so much that you can create a realistic alligator in your room than you can completely see, travel to realms that are completely realistic with their own rules without sleeping or draw stuff in the air that other people who do a similiar practice in similiar doses can see and tell you information that you didnt tell them and they have no way of knowing it,
Also you can make yourself have hyperreal dreams about things you want to happen and they will then happen in this reality.
Do a multiweek kasina retreat where you spend all day doing it. Learn basic magick. Have fun.

Here's how I deal with having a sort-of-nice work situation that I dislike. It works very well but it's a crutch:
So, this might not be the most healthy solution since it's basically a crutch but since you probably don't want to do it your whole life anyway, here's what I do when I have to do work stuff that feels like I'm wasting my days away (I do mostly programming and other IT stuff freelancing while also trying to do well at university):
- small dose (mostly 1/4) armodafinil up to 5 times per week (this really removes any sort of emotional resistance you have to your job, so it's great if you already know what you're doing). Also I meditate for the duration of the comeup which mixes the effects of meditation and moda very nicely for me.
- LSD microdosing 3 times a week, HHC (legal in most places) small dose edible 2 days (assuming you work 5 times a week). If you don't have access to LSD then LSA (legal in most places) in small doses does the trick (I've tested that :P)
This really takes away any sort of emotional resistance to work while also creating a nice mental space to have productive, strong contemplations when there's not much work load so you kill two birds with one stone. It also allows you to tune it down if it's getting in they way of anything if the doses are small enough.
The main downside is that you won't build discipline and might even lose some. Which could be countered by fasting for a few days a month.

You must let the beauty of consciousness penetrate you.
If you are not overjoyed with your own consciousness then it's not awakening.
The highest consciousness is so delighted in itself it is in endless joy. God needs nothing outside itself to be endlessly happy and satisfied.
If you feel incomplete or something is bugging you -- if lack of other is bugging you -- that just means a serious lack of consciousness. So you ain't done with the work.
Awakening is the realization of Absolute Perfection. Nothing at all is wrong or missing.
A hallmark of full awakening is zero fear. You are too conscious to fear anything.
