Reward Time!

Posted by Jen on Thursday, May 21st, 2009 @ 3:58 pm

Today, I made a goal of writing 3k new words of BONE DRY. My reward? Going to see Terminator tonight. Okay, so I was going to go anyway. Already had the tickets and everything. Regardless, I made this goal, teamed it up with a fun reward, and I am pleased to say that it spurred me on. I made it!

I tried this little reward system awhile back with episodes of Buffy, and it worked out very well then, too. So, I’m thinking I’ll do the same tomorrow. Now I just need to think of an appropriate reward. Hmm. I do suppose there is always more Buffy to fall back on.

This is an important decision. Suggestions are welcome.

Rewards… hmmm…

Cheesecake? A new CD? DVD? A trip into the city to go to a museum or a play? New shoes?

Personally any of the above should work for me, but nothing’s motivating me right now - not even threats. (I mean, seriously, how threatening can I be to myself? LOL)
