Is it normal that desire not to lose a deal is the reason i do right things?

I get lazy sometimes and miss some classes at school or call off sick at work even though am not sick. I found that making deals with people motivates me the most. Just recently I made a deal with my friend that if i work out every other day we'll celebrate new years in NY city. And i work out because i don't want to lose the deal, not because i want to work out. Is it normal that only desire to win a deal motivates me to do right things for myself?

    Everybody finds motivation in different areas. Make deals with yourself maybe?
