So Im making a mappack...aaaand... Im almost finished... So obviously Im now procrastinating...
It even took me a while to write this...
So... what can I do to make myself finish the mappack? Its only the boring parts left. I often(not really) start hammer make 1 tiny thing and then quit.
I find it very important that I finish it...but...yeah...
HELP ME!!!! :cry:

P.S. I suck

*Slap!*

...But anyway, I have this problem all the time. It helps to listen to music. If you have an iPod you can listen to, use it. What I usually do is go on YouTube, find a song I like, and play it in the background while I work. If that doesn't help, try setting a deadline for yourself. It will help encourage you to get the map done. Taking a break should help too.

Good Luck!

But the deadline wouldnt be real... like, nothing would happen if I didnt finish on time. :(
And I dont really wanna take a break, I wanna finish the map...

If it's playable, send it to a friend. He'll find bugs that you'll want to fix or even if not, it'll motivate you to have someone talk to you about it.

Here's a thought: If you don't finish in time, you must watch this ENTIRE video:

nyan nyan nyan nyan nyan

Release one of the maps, see what people think of it, use that feedback to push yourself to finish the rest :D

Just realised your mappack is 12 angry tests.
I played it in WIP, I REALLY REALLY LOVED it! If you're finishing it and upload it to SP more people will play and enjoy it!!!:D

I have three ways of motivating myself.
#1 Watching one of my old wrestling videos pumps me up.
#2 Listening to music with a good beat
#3 Streaming movies, tv shows, or whatever on my second monitor while I map. That way you can watch a movie and work on your map little by little, until you get on a roll and really get into making the map.

Maps(Newest to Oldest): Storming the Castle / The Amazing Race / Wreaked / Mental Breakdown / Lost In Transition / Split / Mind Lock
Mapping Since May 21, 2011

I listen to the Portal 2 soundtrack to motivate me to map. I don't know why it helps but it sort of gets you in the mood for it.
