I like to play lets make a deal with my brain.

It does get a little easier, the studying/finding time-- you just have to find out what will motivate you the best and be realistic about how much you can do on a weeknight evening. The prize of having a "weekend off" always sounds nice but I have yet to experience that in my grad school experience. Sometimes spending a half hour in the library during my lunch through out the week helps alleviate the panic. This is horrible, but I like to motivate myself with alcohol. Because you can't drink and study at the same time (I have tried this many times, it never works), but sometimes the reward of a beer if I just finish another chapter works well. Sleep is also a good motivator.

Your advice = a girl after my own heart. A nice cold beer, a good nights sleep? Those both serve as wonderful motivators for me these days.
