Keeping my code as clean as possible is something I always practice. I hate working with code that carries 2-3 different styling methods with line indents, line breaks and spaces all over the place. Carrying the same styling method consistently throughout your code makes it easier to read and to work with. This doesn't really 'keep me motivated' but it prevents me from tearing my hair out because I've been staring at the same code for hours now and I'm still not getting anywhere with it.

I also take breaks when I notice I'm getting agitated or stressed out. Taking time away from what your doing and, say, having a cup of tea and THEN coming back to what you were doing can really help clear your mind and in turn help form new solutions in your head. It's hard to think straight when you're stressed, isn't it.

Particularly for GUI design, I often like to draw up a plan (be it a check list, a model/drawing or even a page of notes in notepad) so I can see exactly what I want included in my finished product. I'll sometimes tick certain points off as I go along which gives me a visible image of how far I am from finishing and what I still need to do.

This applies to any project, not just GScript ones.
