For me that always sounds like a unpleasant concept. If you don't like the task you're trying to make a routine, you'll get a stomach ache as soon as you try it.
Allow me to give you an example from the world of writers. Many authors develop a kind of love-hate relationship with actually writing their books. They enjoy coming up with plots and planning scenes. Only the writing itself is a huge problem. But of course the cash register doesn't ring without regular book releases. So we trick ourselves into writing. Everyone has different methods. Mine is:
I write four days a week and currently aim to write 700 words per day. This number may seem small at first, but wait and see.
I love to edit the stuff I wrote the day or week before. That comes easy to me. So on my writing days, I sit down in front of my laptop, sigh tragically, open my writing program and the book draft file, and read the chapter I left off the day before.
There are always repeated words to be eliminated, spelling mistakes to be corrected, more life and feelings to be breathed into the characters, and so on.
At the end of this edit phase, I have often already written 200 words and only have to do 500 more. With the warm-up my brain is ready for a new scene or even a whole new chapter. I'm motivated and I have coffee. My fingers practically write the scene themselves. I often end up writing 1000 words.
What I'm trying to say is that we authos often trick ourselves into a state where the characters and the story take possession of us and everything flows out of us. The private person of the author recedes into the background and the chronicler of the novel characters takes the lead. (We get really angry when someone disturb us in this phase.) 
My personal opinion is that the only way to reach this state is to start at a point that you find comfortable and positive.
For you, this might mean that you start by drawing cylinders over one model and then move on to gesture drawing.
