Love the reward system you used! I also like to reward myself for goals with little indulges, but think I may try your way and have a family member pick some stuff out. Good luck with everything!
I haven't done any type of reward system. Never have. Maybe when I've actually finished (with editing!) a book, not just got 1M words of drafts. 😄 Unless you count the pain au chocolat I'm going to have with supper tonight. That's like a little reward....
Yess! I definitely bought myself little candies and fave snacks to help encourage myself along- like Pavlov-dogging myself lol. I can only have my favorite treat (almond roca) when I am writing, which encourages me to write! The rewards are new this year, I tried last year when I completed my first ever manuscript, but couldn't justify making the purchase.
I've tried the reward system so many times but never thought about having someone else do it for me so that it's a surprise! (Why didn't I think of that before? 😂😂)
Do you tend to notice a difference in productivity on the day's you got to the gym? I have an office job and sometimes I swear when I go home and stare at another computer screen for hours I'm going to go crazy. But it's hard to get out and do anything when it's cold and dark. Anyways love the content 📚💚
Thank you Araya, I'm glad you're here!! Yes, the gym definitely helps me be more productive in my writing- if anything, forcing myself to go somewhere also pushes me to write because it's like; I just drove all this way and put all this energy into being here, I might as well stay until I feel like I've done enough.
@@Arayawrites Yay! I'm glad! Do you have anything similar near you? The climbing gym is great because no one is judging you if you stop climbing for twenty minutes to write lol

Thank you AJ! It's been a game changer! Now I just need to remember to open them when I'm struggling cuz that's what they're there for!
