I know exactly what you mean. I do it to myself all the time. There's really nothing for it but to force yourself to do whatever you have to as soon as you can. I know you hate the prospect of doing it, but stop thinking about how much of a pain in the ass it would be to trudge through it, and instead focus on how good you're gonna feel when you're done with it.

I was raised in an authoritarian communist state, and so I will blindly follow the people in charge out of fear of punishment.
You must be a joy in team situations.
No, actually, I'm pretty annoying in team situations, because I view teammates as peers, and not authority figures, and so I'll argue with them about all sorts of shit that I think they're doing wrong.

A suggestion on getting things done, based on my personal experiences: Get as far from any possible distractions as humanly possible.
I recently tried something new... just sitting down with a note pad and a pencil and a mocha at some random coffee shop, far far away from my cozy chair (cozy seats invite relaxation, AVOID AT ALL COSTS), my internet, my TV, my books, and delicious, filling food that's already paid for.
In just a few weekends, I've written more than I have, trying my damndest, at my computer, EVER, outside of school assignments.

Oh. Most team situations I've been in had someone step up as a leader who everyone ended up following.
Alright, well, just don't join any sports teams in Toronto.

EVER.
Yea. If I have something I -really- need done, I get out of my apartment, and head to the university like...4 hours ahead of my next class, and go find a nice cubby hole in the middle of the library's stacks of books where they setup those study areas. Nothing electronic in sight, and you can really get some shit done.
Boy, that comic Elks posted reminds me of tynic because she was active in that particular community in the past.
Say, she hasn't been around in a real long while, huh? Almost as though she is dead and all we have of her is a fading memory of insulting Kusu.
Wouldn't it be a real gas if I referred to her as though she had passed, if only to add to the mystery that we don't know at all what happened to her? I sure think so.

You.
Also, because I'm going to bed now, and I have no one to say goodnight to.

Good night, Richy.
I want to go to sleep now too, but I have to wait for my laundry to finish.

Psst, your mic was fine, he just didn't want to hurt your feelbads by telling you that you have an annoying voice ;-)
I tell you what, it makes my flatmate a lot easier to manage

My usual method of getting through them was to hurl my body at the brick part of the wall.
Got me pretty good grades.

Sounds like me.

Shaz sounds like everybody.
Oh tynic, we hardly knew ye.

I had that fear too.
Irond hates me.
What's the topic on?

What's this about Tynic?
She's not of unpleasant situation, is she?

Man, I haven't seen her around in a really, really long time.
Wasn't she buddies or a co-artist with the guy who does TSO? I seem to remember she was at least active on their boards.
I don't know a damned thing about whatever the hell you're talking about.
But Tynic's alright, right?
She is hanging by a thread in a deep well. Sharks and snarky Republicans lie at the bottom. Moths and snarky Democrats are at the opening.
Are you a bad enough Jewcar to rescue her?
This is why I'm glad that my brain is all fucked up.
