It's funny he mentions donating money to the Nazi Party as a means of motivating yourself. I'm planning to do a startup this summer and am saving to get the starting capital. I'm always worrying about not having good enough skills, not knowing enough, etc. So to force myself to start, I made a big deal out of it to tell everyone that I'm going to start this summer, and if I won't start, I'm going to donate the money - about E8000 = $12000 - to the Storm Front or something. Everybody says I'm crazy and if I don't start I should donate the money to a good cause, but the extreme social embarrassment associated with the original setup virtually guarantees I will start this summer :-)
