Have any of you ever asked as being the Master/Mistress to provide incentive for something that your submissive/slave needed to do, but found difficult to stay on task by themself? If so, what was the task and what were the incentives?

I have known of Masters and Mistress use points system they use to earn then rights or a prize. One example I have in mind was a slave who told me her Master had her earn points to get a big bottle of perfume she loved.

I have always assumed that a slave or subs incentive to do something was that their Master or Mistress demanded it. Their desire to please should be enough. They will fail at times, but I see no reason to give a slave an incentive to do something they are supposed to do anyway.

I agree with Estring. If the time is taken to cultivate a submissive's or slave's desire to please their Master or Mistress, and sharpen it to where it would make a submissive's/slave's day, week, month or (under certain circumstances) his/her year, having a point system would be unnecessary.

I believe the question was incentives for the submissive to do things for themselves that they found difficult to motivate themselves to do.

For example, a submissive needs to prepare a presentation which is due on Friday, but on Tuesday they had not really started and are unable to motivate themselves to do it, do any Dominants on this site have incentives they have used. The submissive is not doing it for me, she is doing it for herself.

I agree with those who stated the submissive's service to their Master should be enough to do tasks that were about me, but if I read the question right I would have to say that I have used certain incentives in the past.

Positive:
Play dates, outings (dates), trips to do things, presents, etc., if the task is completed on time and to my satisfaction.

Negative:
Withholding play, orgasms, time doing other enjoyable things, etc., until the task is completed to our satisfaction.

I found the positive ones tended to work better than the negative ones.

In my eyes, whether they are doing something for me or themselves, it makes no difference. I train my slaves to do everything with me in mind. Every action they do is a reflection on their Master. That should be enough, and in my experience it has been.

Yes this is exactly what i meant... and thank you for your response and ideas, as my Master will be looking at them.

I too also agree that as a submissive, my goal is to please my Master and that is what i keep in my thoughts most of the time. I don't say all of the time as there is a real life to deal with; work, kids, and family. And while pleasing my Master is important there are times that i have to be mom, employee, sister and daughter. And when i am in those roles, my Master is not necessarily forefront in my mind; being the best i can be and sucessful in those roles is what i am striving for and in doing so i know that i am pleasing my Master by being the best i can be.
