    I've read a few blog posts lately on searching for missing inspiration http://bit.ly/99sRG1 and fighting procrastination http://bit.ly/bgNTdh that got me thinking. How do you guys get motivated? I tend to give myself "rewards" and set up timetables-- work for an hour, then check Facebook. Is there a better way?
