I hate days when I just don't feel like doing a damn thing.
What do you do to get in the mood to be productive?

If you're not feeling it when you wake up, that's just the way it's gotta be.
There's only one thing to do in that situation.
Die Hard Marathon.
In your [under]pants.

I've been recently thinking about this. looking back at my time at university I realise that only last minute panic motivated me to get stuff done. without it I constantly procrastinated and pushed stuff back. thankfully being the genius that I am I was able to get the results, but if this is going to be a lifelong habit I fear for the future.

i did the same thing. i haven't been doing it as much in law school, but still kind of a little.
i'm alright at work though. it's like if i'm in an office from 9-5 or something, i can get things done, but once i'm allowed to just go at my own pace, that pace becomes very slow until the deadline comes up

this is exactly how I am.
I am trying not to be. I think the thing that's getting me more focused is just the simple fact that I'm getting older.

I'm mostly motivated by desperation and fear of failure. That's a good motivator. Reliable.

All those fucking people who want me to be "productive" can just shut up and die! Yes, fuck 'em!

the only thing that really motivates me is if others are relying/depending on me. i really(huge emphasis on really) don't want to ever be considered a hindrance or a nuisance to other people or cause grief and frustration. im not really motivated by my own personal gains. i always seem to do better with school work when it envolves groupwork. i just don't want to piss anyone off. i don't put nearly as much effort in when im the only beneficiary when it come to anything, not just schoolwork. i don't really know why im like this. it's the way i've always been.
reliability is a value i hold a lot too.

I don't fight it unless I have to. I figure the odd day of dossing about does me no harm and I am mostly productive so an 'off' day is acceptable.

having a kid to take care really change the game; those days were i would lack motivation cannot really see the day. I just gotta get rolling.
Doing some exercise can really get you going. It's start the machine.

Motivation.
Usually if I wait to feel motivated, I'm screwed. The best way for me to get motivated is to just start doing whatever I need to do. Then I get
into it, I'm on a roll, and almost hate to stop.
