I think that an unconventional hammer(at least by average person standards) that I’ve used for almost all nails in my life is beeminder. Many people would gape at the hundreds of dollars in derailments I’ve spent over the years, but it’s essentially the price of the motivation you’re buying. It seems to be one of the best personal incentive alignment tools out there, at least that I’ve tried. It works best when you’re Type Bee Personality, which I would guess most people on LessWrong are. Definitely at least give it a look at!
