i do it by telling myself that i can quit after 20 minutes and have to take an hour break before trying again. usually by the time 20 mins hit i was like “might as well just finish” or id be like “i was right this sucks” and then have a guilt free hour break which helped lessen the stress

I did it by convincing myself it’s due the day before it’s actually do and letting the anxiety force me to do it or I’ll be a disappointment, not healthy but it works

-freeze your keys so you can’t go home -wear wet socks until you finish -exchange it for another chore like laundry or dishes -make it about your special interest/hyperfixafion/a passion you have somehow -pretend you’re in your favorite tv show or movie (whenever i do business/econ homework i pretend im in Succession)
