I had this issue as well. My solution is to leave myself a foothold task at the end of the day before. Because I found once I'm actually sitting and started on something I'm okay. My big hurdle was taking too long to decide what the first thing to do was and procrastinating on that choice. So now I decide the day before what my first thing is and I just start it. Idk if this gets to the core of your question, but it worked for me.
This is a good idea! I feel like I waste the morning scrolling my email, articles, etc. and then spend too much time thinking about what I should start on
Set a minimum number of hours billed before you allow yourself a lunch break. Makes it a lot easier to get started
If you are most effective if you start at 11 am then why would you fight that? Take care of personal needs in the morning, have an early lunch, and then crank out work until you have worked your target number of hours.
I asked myself this too. I mostly want to stop staying up so late and want to have more time to enjoy dinner w my husband. I’m thinking that if I can kick the 11am start time I’ll get into a better daily routine than the one I have now!
I have to start work immediately. I eat my breakfast at my desk and do easy tasks (or scroll on my phone) until I’m more awake. If I take time for a morning routine, I’ll never start working.
Yea I find I procrastinate with things that are productive (like cleaning) and this is part of why I said I don’t want exercise recommendations because I won’t make it to my desk until even later😬
Put your alarm out of reach so you have to get up to turn it off. I have a hard time getting out of bed but once I do I’m fine.
