If motivation and ability are both already there, I usually find the easiest way to move past procrastination is to choose a small-mid sized task and set a 15 minute timer.

Committing to working on that task for 15 mins, even if I really dont feel like it, is usually enough to get the ball rolling.



Yeah, it's a simple technique that we also recommend. Our extension has a timer for that reason.
