This. I recently had this epiphany and pretty much said the same thing http://blog.everythings-beta.com/?p=332.

Important things:

* start with small things and set a specific completion date/feature spec.

* stop at a point where you know exactly what you need to do next. It's much easier to come back when you do this.

* use org-mode to plan/track your project. I like checking things off. The feeling of meeting mini-goals will keep you going.

Go forth and finish :)
