Also, how well-lit is your workspace? Add a lamp, or switch to a brighter bulb, see if that helps...
And then what other people have said: remember to breathe, play music/tv/movies while your work to keep your energy levels up, and if you're bored with what you're making try making something else.
And don't forget to hydrate!

Water, that's HUGE! I remember for the first two or three years I would feel so bad torching after a short time and couldn't figure out why. My daughter was the one that finally clued me into the fact that I was dehydrated (I had actually forgotten all about that until I read this) and now I automatically carry out 3 bottles of water when I go to work and almost always finish them off.
