I have a load of coursework that I know I need to do, but I just keep putting it off. When I do sit down and try to do it I can't concentrate and keep getting distracted to go and get food or check whats on TV etc. Anyone got any suggestions?

I do all my work at my desk here so I always get distracted, but sometimes (like this Monday & Tues) my conscience gets the better of me and I work my bollocks off

Set yourself little targets and when you acheive them then treat yourself to a break. Sounds obvious but it's the only thing I can think of that has a remote chance of working, other than going to somewhere really quiet where televisions don't exist

I normally wait until the middle of the night when nothing much is happening.

There, is only one true motivator in this world: pressure The setting yourself targets thing is probably right, do a topic, give yourself a porn break, do a topic....

I'm yet to find a way of making myself work. I still leave everything to the last minute. Knowing that it's 6am and you only have 8 hours till hand in tends to be pretty good motivation.

Drink is the answer.  I'm starting to wonder if this is true. I did fairly well last semester because I went out and got drunk and stuff. This semester I've hardly been out and my units are going really crap!
