OT: Help with motivation

[SimPLsol at aol.com]

Hi Tom,
     My preferred approach seems to be similar but different to the responses 
so far.
     I like to scope out the pending project in as much detail as possible, 
especially milestones. Gives my an idea of how big the task is, how long it 
would take, whether I can do all of the tasks myself, will it be fun, etc.
     This often helps me decide, early on, that I really don't want to do it. 
And that is a good thing, too. If your inner voice is saying I want no part 
of this, it might just be giving you good advice.
