That, I believe, is the most debilitating.
Being driven by guilt, fear and even an endgame reward.
Those were the driving forces that helped me beat the Baldur's Gate series. Why wouldn't it work in life too?
Ha, I thought I was the only one who finished games because I felt guilty for not enduring to the end. I think I'd better repent and rededicate myself to magnifying my Ninja Gaiden Sigma calling.

I don't think I could ever muster up the required amounts of self-loathing to attempt that again.

Probably wise, one Christmas break my brother and I pulled out the old NES Ghosts'n'goblins, the first game we ever played, and decided we would finish it or die in the attempt. We started at 8 pm. We finished at 7 am. The misspelled ending screen was not worth it. I assume the programmers assumed no one would ever finish it and didn't care.
