- something that might help: try to identify the 'little voice in your head' that tells you that it would be sooo much more fun to watch that program or whatever. find out what it says, and identify a 'counter-sentence'. Write that down and stick it on your wall, the top of your computer screen, the mirror... wherever it helps. tell close friends to remind you of it every now and then.

this is actually quite hard and might involve some time/work/help of friends. but it's worth it if it helps you do what you really want. my counter-sentence btw is "but I LIKE reading/writing/thinking". as simple as that... but if I don't remind myself, I tend to forget. and play a game on the computer instead.
