Get some exercise and then immediately (while still sweating) sit back down at your desk and try to start. For some reason, that was a very effective way to start my homework assignments (the hardest part) in grad school.

The above post is truly great advice.

Also, pages and pages of advice here about anxiety and nobody mentions caffeine? Be aware that many people get a big increase in anxiety from just one small cup of coffee. Try a caffeine-free life for a couple months, if you have never tried it.

Finally, similar to the above advice, try doing some work in the morning before your "procrastination and anxiety" side has even woken up. In other words, roll right out of bed, still half asleep, and slouch over to your desk and do some work on your project.

Good luck!

Great advice about caffeine. My personal limit is one cup a day, first thing in the morning. More than that has very noticeable effects on me - positive in the short term but negative in the long term. Don't listen to what other people tell you about it, and do the experiments on yourself. Like most drugs, people seem to like brag about being able to handle it, and like most drugs, it has wildly varying effects on different people.
