It's not fun, but if you want to ride, you have to do it.
When I did my ride across AZ, we had a 35 mile ride into Flagstaff. It was supposed to be our "easy" day. NOT! Fought a huge headwind - it took 5 hours!

But here's the deal with wind. Figure that it is your personal trainer. Remember "Spin, spin, spin in the wind."

Whenever my life gets really hard, I just tell myself to "put your head down & pedal." I learned that from headwinds.
