Whatever demands he makes upon himself should be uncomplicated and simple enough so that he has a good chance of following through on them—hence a feeling of accomplishment.

If he left himself alone work-wise there would be plenty of accomplishment, but he does not believe this. Of course he must make some demands of himself—reasonable ones. To be angry at himself for not doing his yoga, say, today can outdo the benefits of having done them earlier.

You remind him not to project negatively into the future. He needs the reminder. Again, as mentioned, you helped him the other night, bringing him into the moment constructively, and this is what is needed. He also should be encouraged to feel his energy, and rouse it. When he demands it of himself it is always there. If this is handled correctly the entire project can (underline) incite emotional excitement. If so, it has excellent chances. The more exciting it can be made the better, for this alone will rouse his enthusiasm.
