How do I get the motivation to fix this laptop mainboard?

The only thing wrong with it is the charge ports, but the problem is 44 of the 48 pads across the 2 type c ports are missing. (don't ask me how, I don't know either, its used since it was the only replacement board I could afford)

I've been putting it off for a few months now, I know what must be done, I just am too intimidated.

Any tips for reframing this problem so i stop putting it off would be appreciated
