Still, in your vision, you would probably rather dream of the benefit your labour brings for yourself and the community. You wouldn't dream of the labour itself, would you?
I would. Some things are really enjoyable to do, and can earn you money. Whether or not the things you enjoy doing pay enough to cover rent is another problem entirely.
I feel like those things would be connected. The act of doing genuine helpful acts of labor feels very rewarding to me and many people I met felt the same. Especially when these acts enable me to show my "humanity" and/or my inner self.
