Welcome to the forums michealsmith,
For me, the core of it: the pleasure of learning and of solving problems, plus working on things that nobody else has studied or dealt with before.
Other things I enjoy from it:
I really like the kind of environment in which you work, the people you interact with and the toys you get to use.

If you are thinking of being a physicist than that is the first step, You must understand your most likely not going to be rich or famou but I do it cause I love solving problems.
