I use the Napoleon Hill method of having a definite chief aim - Bruce Lee is probably one of the most famous users of it. http://imgur.com/r/GetMotivated/CvaN5Q

The method boils down to writing something down to yourself outlining what you want to achieve, how you're going to achieve it, and when you're going to achieve it by. Then you keep reading the aim and it helps to motivate you.
- swayvil 13y agoThat sounds very much like a "ritual magic" technique. Beyond the document you might include visual, olfactory, etc cues. Pictures and incense etc that create positive goal-achievement-associated feelings and ideas. Maybe a physical metaphor of progress too (...as this candle burns lower so I approach my goal...). Ritual magic enthusiasts (like Aleister Crowley for example) would say that you are actually imposing your will upon the stuff of reality in this controlled way, or something like that. Fascinating stuff.
