I need to stop procrastinating

Update: Omg guys I finally finished my Conflict in Europe linking table! This took way long than necessary though -_- I was disappointed in myself when I took a nap today after lunch. I was really tired and I couldn't concentrate and then eventually fell asleep. I never take naps and even if I did, I would beat myself up because I feel grumpy afterwards and it's such a waste of time! I thought I wasn't gonna finish the table so I pushed myself to finish it by tonight- and I did! Except I'm not sure if I'm gonna get a good night's rest tonight because this is way past the bedtime I initially established.

It felt good to tick off this table on my list but I think I'm gonna have to delete the Germany Linking Table off my list because this one took so long and I'd rather spend the holidays working on other things- practice essays and physics prep (rip physics mark ;-;).

So tomorrow's goal: At least write an intro and 1 body paragraph for a HIX 2014 HSC Question 2.

Congrats! At least you've got it done and off the list!
About the sleep... my sleep pattern was totally screwed up so I can totally relate! Try taking 'restavit' (you can buy it over the counter at any chemist) for 5 or so nights running... I found it worked really well! Also....1 whole tablet totally knocked me out so you might want to try just 1/2! It's non-addictive so nothing to worry about... but it says can cause drowsiness (I haven't found that it does?!)

Update: I found myself procrastinating, again -_-

To be honest, I find myself procrastinating during the day but around just before dinner, my productivity picks up. Not sure how to change this because I wasted all day just binge watching videos and stress eating. I told myself yesterday that I would write an intro and 1 body paragraph for History Extension but nope. I only managed to write an intro. I said my waist was hurting but now my shoulders and waist are hurting as well- my shoulder was cramping last night so I have no clue how to fix it.

Tomorrow's goal: write at least one body paragraph for my practice essay.

Heya, in the same boat as you!! Whenever I try to start working my mind hits a road block and refuses to function properly. I found that moving your study location around every now and then helps a bit. Like a change of scenary so your brain doesnt lock up as soon as you see your desk. Hope this helps and good luck!!

Update: So I said yesterday that I wanted to write at least 1 body paragraph and I finished this! I didn't do a workout today so I had to sacrifice that -_- But I did start another body paragraph. I'm also sacrificing sleep because it's 12.30 right now rip. As for my procrastination levels, it wasn't too bad. Like, I woke up binge watching videos and then doing some work and then when it got later I started procrastinating.

Anyway, I'm hope to finish paragraph 2 and possibly start 3 tomorrow. Not sure if I could finish it though.
