When I did a 30-day Vegan trial, I simply kept my target date in mind with a perceived reward: "On June Xth, I'm going to Fuddrucker's for the most delicious greasy hamburger ever."
Although I'm back on an omnivorous diet now, I continued with the Vegan diet for a couple additional weeks, and I still haven't claimed my "victory burger."
When I did 30 days of going to the gym daily, I started on the first day of a month, so it was easy to remember. I didn't keep any logs of my progress.
On my current trial, consistently getting up at 5:00 am, shower/shave/make the bed right away each morning, and write in a daily journal for at least 15 minutes, I again started at the beginning of a month, plus I'll have journal logs of each success and stumble.
Hope this helps!
