Advice and tips: Bribery! I withhold things I want until I get my daily words done. Example: When I get home from work, the words have to happen before I have dinner. 5K increments get rewarded with nummy treats--ultra-rich hot chocolate, stuff like that.
Also, your outline is your friend. Use it. When the scene you're in isn't going anywhere, pick the next point on your map and skip ahead. Maybe you'll come back and realize what the scene needs. (Sometimes, that's a nuke launched from orbit--my first NaNo, when I came back on the editing pass, I realized that I very much needed to just cut entire chunks, and my brain had been TRYING to inform me of that by just refusing to write them.)
