But that's an exam situation. You don't actually fly somewhere IFR recovering from partial panel unusual position recovery all the time while trying to get established in an NDB hold with a 500kt crosswind and tornadoes...

Get yourself in some nice clag, get settled down on the dials without someone bleating in your ear and I bet you would find it enjoyable. It's very satisfying to take off from somewhere, go IMC at 1,000', fly for an hour and come out the other end somewhere completely different without seeing a thing the whole way apart from departure and arrival.
