Movitation


Movitation is a very tricky business, because what movitates one person will put off another. I know for a fact that the promise of reading a new Star Trek after doing a little more work on a script would be enough to get me writing, but at the same time, it would be enough to make some of my friends throw the table up in despair.


Like Frank (picture)

However, I realise that I need movitation in my life. I need it in order to actually make my Doctor Who Figure Adventure Series. I've got some reasonable scripts, a couple of good mock-ups of what potentially it could look like on film, but I lack the movitation (and the Printer Ink but that's another issue) to take it to the next level and actually, you know, make a proper video. What can I do about this?

That's right! Provide my own movitation. But what? I can't drink, due to the fact it makes me vomit when the alcohol mixes with my various tablets. I can't smoke, primarily because I only really smoke when I've had a bit to drink, and that involves stopping my tablets for three days and that's complicated and also because I don't like the taste of cigarettes. I could award myself by watching a DVD, but I do that while I work because I find it easier to work with noise in the background. I could work that rush of satisifaction I feel when I finish something, but that takes ages to kick in and is rarely worth it at the best of times.

So I need to come up with something really good.

And if someone suggests not buying figures until I do work, then I will simply laugh in your face before I call you an idiot and walk away, still laughing. In fact, I'm laughing right now imagining if I actually did that. 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Anyways, I'm done laughing and I need to figure it out because I now plan to have at the very least the first Special (IE my pilot that reintroduces David Tennant thanks to the old "Alternate Timeline" excuse JJ Abrams pulled for Star Trek excuse) up on Youtube by Christmas, as well as a trailer for my first series made, which I intend to come around May time, as well as three episodes (note: episodes, not stories) made by my Birthday, which is steadily approaching.

So help me with an idea for motivation, otherwise I will just steal someone else's idea and smoke a cigar for every completed story (that's two ten minute episodes) I successfully finish to my satisifaction. 


Long Long and Propser.
