Masturbation as Motivation: A Real Incentive for Penis Care

Everybody procrastinates sometimes, and the occasional “putting off” does little harm. But sometimes procrastination becomes a problem, and a person needs a little extra motivation in order to get them to move forward. Different people are motivated by different things, but for many men masturbation could be used as an incentive to get things done. So long as it doesn’t interfere with their penis care, using masturbation as motivation may be a helpful trick for many a man.

Incentive theory

Incentive theory is a well-established method for creating motivation in a person. For example, many people work harder at their job if they know that some form of meaningful reward will result from it – a raise in salary, a new position, a larger office, more flex time, etc. And for some people, sticking to a diet is easier if there are rewards associated with it, such as one day off from the diet every week.

For an incentive to work, the reward has to be something the individual finds meaningful. If a man hardly ever masturbates, or masturbates but has an “I can take it or leave it” attitude, using masturbation as motivation may not be effective. Similarly, if a man places too much emphasis on masturbation, using it as an incentive may be complicated – he must feel rewarded but not feel punished (by not being able to masturbate) during the time when he is working toward the reward.

Here are a few scenarios of how masturbation as motivation might work.

– Maximum boredom. Fred has a new assignment at work, but it’s one that does not interest him in the least. The subject is boring, the process is boring and there’s no room for doing anything but rote, by-the-book work. It has to get done, but Fred just dreads doing it – even though he knows it won’t take him that long to do once he gets started. Using masturbation as a lure, Fred promises himself a solid 2 hours of self-stimulation tonight – but only if he completes the assignment before leaving work.

– The long haul. Steve has been meaning to paint his apartment for a long time but has been putting it off. There’s a lot of work to do – stripping the wallpaper off in one room, patching the walls in two others, priming all the surfaces and putting at least two coats on each wall. It’s going to take a week to do and it needs to get done, but Steve hates painting. Finally, he girds his loins and makes a promise: Although he is someone who masturbates every night, he agrees not to fondle himself at all until the whole apartment is painted. (And with that motivation, he even manages to get it all done a day early.)

– Play-as-you-go. Lee really needs to lose weight – at least 30 pounds. But he has such a hard time resisting food. In order to help him stick to his new diet, Lee decides that he will not masturbate until he has lost five pounds – and will reward himself with some lengthy solo time every time he reaches an additional five pound loss.

Masturbation as motivation can incentivize a man in ways that some other rewards might not. But it may also lead to a somewhat sore (if happy) penis, so using a first class penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) is definitely called for. Make sure the crème has both Shea butter (a high-end emollient) and vitamin E (a natural hydrator) to keep the penis skin supple and moisturized. Also, too much masturbation can de-sensitize the penis, so the crème should include acetyl L carnitine, an amino acid that protects against the peripheral nerve damage from rough handling that can lead to loss of sensation.
