Can you generate fear and direct it towards something desirable ?

Through visualisation or something else. 

Generate genuine fear towards wasting time and living below your standards

Fear is a double edged sword. For example, fearing that junk foods will harm you will force you to consider reducing or stopping them. But, it you continue eating junk food with the fear still present, it may increase the negative effects of junk food due to placebo effect.
