You are bag of meat with chemicals inside of you. Some of those chemicals make you feel bad and some of them make you feel good. Doing things you enjoy releases some of the good chemicals. Caffeine also increases your perception of alertness and awakeness which makes doing stuff easier and therefore more pleasant.
Caffeine stimulates the release of dopamine in the “reward” part of your brain. It is one of the factors that lead to addiction.
