A technique I use is to use the thing I'm avoiding to make progress on the 2nd thing I'm avoiding. It's strange, but if I'm overscheduled and REALLY don't want to work on my taxes, somehow I have a lot of energy to clean up the garage. I've also found that if I work on something and finish it, the next day I bumble around when getting started. But if I stop right at some obvious place in the middle, the next day I immediately jump in and finish it, then use the momentum for the next thing. |

This is called structured procrastination.

And this one is called Ovsiankina effect.
