I am a big fan of the 'to do' tick-list - making sure I don't put too many items on on per day. If I have an appointment or visitor, I use that as a motivator - i.e. 'I'll do x before I go to the appointment/see the visitor'. If it's a chore like cleaning the oven, I sit in front of it afterwards with a glass of something or cup of tea and 'admire' what I've done. At the end of the day I praise myself for what I've achieved. If you write tasks down you have a solid record for those times you think, ' oh, I've done nothing' when you've actually achieved a lot.
