Stay outside a central business district, because the shopping, cafes and distractions will ensure that you won't even have a chance to get out of there.
Cancel all pay tv, internet downloading and home cooking, as these are fierce time competitors.
Convince yourself you have to get that nursery plant or check out this deli - and they are all at least an hour's drive away.
Chalk up the mileage on Monday and Tuesday nights - when most feel they need to stay home to watch the best tv shows, catch up on emails and rest from weekend driving.
Attend that evening talk after work - and ensure it's held as faraway as possible.
Get the dishwasher going and the laundry spinning - and when you come home after all that driving, the house work's done. Positive association between driving and getting the reward of auto housework!
Plan an appointment in between the required bouts of long-distance driving. Catch up with a friend, eat much loved food in between to break the journey and have a place to stay for the night.
Get to drive over a variety of routes and differing landscapes.
Hook up your iPod to the car stereo and ensure hands free bluetooth mobile phone connection.
Bring along family, a pet or a good mate for the ride.
Drive towards a sunrise, sunset or just have a full moon guide you along the way!
Reward yourself with frequent driving happy thinking, strategic time and just sheer singing.
