Let me give some advice. Advice I haven’t actually put into practice myself but other people have told me to do it.

 When you are given any sort of writing project try to write a set number of words a day. If you have two weeks to write a 4 page paper and you write maybe a thousand or so words each day for the paper you’ll be able to consistently knock out a chunk of the work each day .Its not terribly large amount of words so you don’t lose much out of your day. 

Don’t worry about what the words are exactly because doing this properly should allow for revision time later. Write first, revise later. (much like this post).

 Trust me, procrastinating feels like shit, and this is a really nice way to handle it.
