How do you motivate yourself to…”

Imo, I think you’ve already found what works, you just don’t like treating or rewarding yourself. You might wanna ask yourself why you’re so set on going for stubbornness when other solutions have proved effective (at least in the past).

It’s true that I don’t like rewarding myself, but right now I just want to move my butt on this one thing. I wanna be done with it and I have been playing with other things in the meantime and giving myself time to relax, but I do genuinely need to get moving on it if I want to finish by the end of the year.
