I play with a buddy and we do some friendly wagering, what we do is this: (we both want to break 90)

Every 3 holes is 1 unit. The unit is judged on strokes compared to bogey (two bogeys and a par is -1)
The reason we bet every three holes is to keep us focused and avoid that problem where you shoot an 11 on the first hole and the day is blown. This keeps you motivated. Something similar might work for you, even if you just challenge yourself.
