#Chore for #Reward

fabianhemmert says:
For me, there are two basic kinds of tasks: Those I do not like to do, and those I enjoy doing.

I recently found a simple way to trick myself into doing the former, with the help of RTM: I tag my enjoyable tasks as '#reward', allowing myself to do them ONLY when I did one of the '#chore' tasks first.

Until now, it hasn't let me down, and I am surprisingly more productive. It also integrates well with my existing GTD structure, as a layer on top.
