I did that a lot recently, but the past week I decided that I hated spending all day thinking about the tasks more than doing them.

I’ve been forcing myself to just do it and I’ve been getting through it pretty quickly and not having that task loom over me all day.

This feels good when I can actually do it. Most of the time it's just suffering though.

I read somewhere a good starting point is if a task takes less than two minutes, just do it now. You start there and build. Never quite realized that's what I'd started doing on my own, but it has helped, especially after making it a conscious effort.

Now if someone could tell me how to deal with having a shift at work at the end of the day and the entire day before the shift being wasted because all I can focus on is that I have somewhere to be in 6 hours.
