I feel you, as sometime I'm experiencing the same lack of motivation.
I'm still proud of the product I make, and some part of my daily job I still love, but I often find myself doing boring stuff and it is hard to being motivated.
Let me start by saying that if you reached the point when you don't care about your daily job you should start looking for a new one. I'm getting close to that point, I still give 100% to my job but keep asking myself why am I still here?
Anyway, that's what I suggest to try being motivated at work:
1) start the day with a small, easy task so you can get an achievement
2) learn something new, and not just read an article or listen to an online course, that's ok but you need to implement something, even simple
3) find the time to go to a place that makes you happy and relaxed. Although my office isn't close to home it is in the middle of two parks, so I always have a nice walk in one of them during lunch break and enjoy the quietness. When it rains I don't go to the park and it impacts my productivity in the afternoon.
4) try to take pride in everything you do. Even if a task is dumb, try to come up with a smart solution. Maybe take the time to learn something new even in a language you don't like and forced to use for that task.
5) go help a team mate. Similar to 1), you can get a sense of achievement.
6) if you don't like one of your project try not to think about it outside work, it would make you feel bad.
7) spend time with your family and friends, they're more important to your life in the long run than the project you're working on.
