    but the things i want to do for myself aren’t economically viable.

    and, no, ‘i work because i want to eat’ (or to X, or other CBT mind tricks) don’t work either — coercion doesn’t work on me, even when i want it to.

      Anything can become economically viable in the right circumstances. Maybe you don’t want it to become economically viable because then you’d have to share or sell.

      As for coercion, when there’s nothing to coerce you with, invent something that can.
