#WritersCoffeeClub Sept 25: What keeps you striving concerning your writing goals?

I have narrative earworms that play out in my head. 
I love to daydream. And in my brain, my characters get up to so much, it verges on an x-rated soap opera at times.
Writing it down gives them a chance to take a breath occasionally. Pacing, consistency, motivations, and sometimes basic common decency, prevent total anarchy, or a bacchanalian orgy from kicking off. 
My goal is to get much better at it.
