This is how I would train a pigeon to compulsively throw dice like crazy - Burrus F Skinner.

I don't think this will be good to you in the long run.

I forgot to mention in the post itself. I only allow myself one roll a day, so I have to decide if I want to take the chance on something for a snack in the morning, or with lunch, or later on in the evening. I can't train myself to throw dice like crazy because only the first one for a day counts.
