synergistic aspect to using certain time-management tools in order to create generalized motivation.

A particulary example; I will call "activation energy" where it's difficult to have motivation to start a task but once you have started the task you can continue fine.

• Actual example: go for a run. Difficult to start but easy to keep running for the duration of the run.

Activation energy type problems can be solved by time-management or the more general "organisation" class of solution. Specifically; if you can organise a lower activation energy to the task; you can motivate yourself to do it.

• Specific example again. If you can make it easy for yourself to go for a run; running shoes are ready next to your bed for when you wake up; breakfast pre-prepared for when you get back from the run; etc.

Then you can reduce the activation energy to starting the task; Thus solving a motivation problem with organisation. But again; I agree with SquirrelInHell that these are usually different problems (with synergy).
