Also, similar to Saden, if my electronic data isn't in order I get antsy, yet I'm not obsessed with all things electronic.

I have a pretty meticulous routine at night time as far as getting ready for the following day. Every night before I go to bed, I make sure the next morning's clothes are folded and laid out for me (regardless if it's gym or work clothes). I also have to make sure the coffee is set to brew. Despite the world's attachment to electronic gadgets, I'm one of the few people I know who still use a handwritten day-planner. So most importantly, in the last 10 to 20 minutes before I go to bed, I make a detailed to-do list for the following day in my planner. I find that having that handwritten outline to start the day is a huge motivator.

So that's me and my touch of OCD.
Just reading this exhausted me. As to motivation - I find two kids and a couple mortgages to be an incredible motivator.
