Everyone procrastinates sometimes, and the occasional “procrastination” does little harm. But sometimes procrastination becomes a problem, and a person needs a little extra motivation to keep going. Different people are motivated by different things, but for many men masturbation could be used as an incentive to get things done. As long as it doesn’t interfere with taking care of your penis, using masturbation as motivation can be a useful trick for many men.
incentive theory
Incentive theory is a well-established method of creating motivation in a person. For example, many people work harder at their jobs if they know they will get some kind of meaningful reward: a raise, a new position, a bigger office, more flex time, etc. And for some people, sticking to a diet is easier if there are rewards associated with it, like a day off the diet each week.
For an incentive to work, the reward has to be something the individual finds meaningful. If a man almost never masturbates, or masturbates but has a take-it-or-leave-it attitude, using masturbation as motivation may not be effective. Similarly, if a man puts too much emphasis on masturbation, using it as an incentive can be tricky: he should feel rewarded but not punished (for not being able to masturbate) during the time he is working for the reward.
Here are some scenarios of how masturbation could work as motivation.
– Maximum boredom. Fred has a new assignment at work, but it’s one he’s not the least bit interested in. The subject is boring, the process is boring, and there is no room to do anything but work from memory, following the book. She has to do it, but Fred is just afraid to do it, even though she knows it won’t take him that long to do it once he starts. Using masturbation as a lure, Fred promises himself a solid 2 hours of self-stimulation tonight, but only if he completes the assignment before he gets off work.
– The long journey. Steve has been meaning to paint his apartment for a long time, but has been putting it off. There’s a lot of work to be done: stripping wallpaper in one room, patching walls in two others, priming all surfaces, and putting at least two coats on each wall. It will take a week to do and it has to be done, but Steve hates painting. Finally, he girds his loins and makes a promise: Although he is someone who masturbates every night, he promises not to caress himself at all until the entire apartment is painted. (And with that motivation, he even manages to get it all done a day early.)
– Play on the go. Lee really needs to lose weight, at least 30 pounds. But he has such a hard time resisting food. To help him stick to his new diet, Lee decides that he won’t masturbate until he’s lost five pounds, rewarding himself with extended time alone each time he loses an additional five pounds.
Masturbation as a motivation can turn a man on in ways that other rewards might not. But it can also lead to a somewhat sore (if happy) penis, so use a top-notch penis health cream (Health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven to be gentle and safe for the skin) definitely required. Make sure the cream has shea butter (a high-end emollient) and vitamin E (a natural moisturizer) to keep the skin on your penis supple and hydrated. Also, too much masturbation can desensitize the penis, so the cream should include acetyl L-carnitine, an amino acid that protects against peripheral nerve damage from rough handling that can lead to loss of sensation.
