The intensive pronoun is found in the second sentence - I myself am enjoying its new challenges.
Myself is an intensive pronoun.

The correct answer is myself.
The word myself is an intensive pronoun, along with any other pronoun ending in -self. Although they look the same as reflexive pronouns, the difference is that intensive pronouns are used simply to add emphasis on that pronoun. They are not necessary in a sentence, but can be inserted so as to make things more 'intense.'
