Since one month I do some sort of productivity gamification: I rate my mornings on a 1-5 scale with regard to
1) time spend doing something useful and
2) degree of distraction.
Plus if I get out of bed immediately after waking up, I get a plus point.
For every point that I don’t achieve on these scales, I pay 50 cents to a charity.
A random morning of mine:
1) time was well spent, I started working early and kept at it until lunch → 5⁄5
2) I had some problems focussing while reading → 3⁄5
+1 because I got out of bed immediately
The major noticeable impact it has so far is that I get out of bed in the morning. Plus it gives me a chance to review, e.g. one hypotheses I made on the basis of the example: coffee decreases ability to focus.
