Set goals. Reward yourself for completing the goal. Here is what I do.

I play 50 games a day anything over and above 50 games in 1 day goes towards my parlay BR. SMTW & F (I take thursday off) On saturday is pure parlay day. If my parlay account is positive I reward myself with a shot at a higher limit with my extra BR.

This works for me because I don't function well unless I have something higher to aim for. For you it might be a new toy, computer upgrade, drugs, or maybe a hooker.

If you simply can't force yourself to play 50 a day then I don't know what to tell ya. Once you get into the habit, it feels easy, then you start playing a couple of 60 and 75 tourney days. If you contine to only play 100/wk then you will hit a very very nasty run and unless your BR is Uber Phat then you will suffer. When you suffer your first long even swing over 1k SnGs at the 109s you will hurt. It can happen. It will happen if you play enough.
