I would recommend picking a project that you can do only in Assembly. For me, this was creating a special waveform on a microchip controller. I had to create a custom 800kHz signal using a 16MHz clock, so there was no way other than to respect each and every clock cycle, and make the most of it.

The key is to choose a project that you are excited about. If you pick another blah assembly tutorial, without the excitement of a project pushing you, your enthusiasm will evaporate sooner or later.
