“The promise of a reward works wonders for generating writing motivation. I make sure to line up a few favorite activities that I can’t partake in until I’ve completed the day’s writing goals. By conditioning yourself this way, you begin to associate writing with a golden carrot. Not to mention, there’s the bonus of riding that writer’s high, and enjoying your favorite pastimes guilt-free!”
