How to enjoy Solah?

A person will be able to enjoy Solah, when they feel Allah swt in their prayer.
How can we feel Allah swt in our Prayer?
That is called dhikr; by feeling Allah swt outside our prayer.

The more and more a person remembers Allah swt outside their Solah,
the more they will be able to remember Him inside their Solah,
When they remember Allah Ta'ala inside their Solah --> they will start enjoying their Solah --> Once they start enjoying their Solah, they will be passionate about their Solah; they will love their Solah.

So, if we want to make our Salah an act of love, we need to start focusing on the adaab of Salah. As opposed to praying like most of us do it: hastily, rapidly, praying as an obligation only - Imam An-nawwawi calls it the prayer of Ibaad and he means it in a negative sense like the concept of enslaved humans is that they are forced to do what their masters tell them. We don't want our salah to be like that, instead we should focus on beautifying it; making it an act of love.

insyaallah...
