Why give up anything you enjoy?
It seems silly.

I use gaming as a reward. I set myself targets for the week. If I meet them then I set aside three hours on a Friday or Saturday to play games. If my targets are not met then I use that time to work on my business.
I also make sure that my targets are challenging.

It's a great incentive to work harder than I would have done otherwise. Plus there is a small reward at the end if it.

And, it helps to teach self-control.
