Gardens are run on enthusiasm, not guilt or self-discipline. Sure, the "I should" messages can force us to do the chores occasionally but for long-term motivation, focus on "wanting" to be there.


My favorite trick is to take a cup of tea and walk around. Since my hands are occupied, I obviously can't pull that weed or move those pots. All I have to do is appreciate what's there.
