I need help on how to get myself on task with doing work and not procrastinating. |
The procrastination is simple: you find the homework boring and lacking any pleasure (certainly compared to other activities) and mentally resist putting yourself in that situation. If it really is that much of a struggle then spend 5 minutes mentally reviewing
WHY doing your homework will produce pleasure for you over the long term. Create a statement and a vision board that details why doing homework now will bring pleasure to you over your lifetime (enhanced education prospects = enhanced job opportunities = freedom of career choice and greater capacity to earn). And then discipline yourself. Have a set time if you need to do that and as soon as you get to that point just throw yourself into your homework with pause or deliberation. Like getting up a the same time in the morning every day.
