When you find yourself procrastinating on completing a dissertation related task, push yourself to find another way, quickly. It does your project (and you) no good to have a "to-do" that never gets "to-done". If there is a task you’re dreading, ask yourself: How can I get this done in another way? Give yourself permission to ask for help, outsource the work, to do it in small chunks, or redefine whether it’s important at all. Find ways to make it fun or enjoyable or social. Stated another way, find ways to lighten the load of the task into something you can actually lift.
