So i've got tonnes of college work due in...but i have lots of free time.... i just cant seem to find a place to start.
I've tried listening to some "Inspirational" music to keep me focussed but it didnt work that well.
Do you guys have some quotes or any ideas of how i can get started on my work....I know it sounds like a really stupid question but an guys in a similar situation to me will understand.

what always seems to work for me is to sleep less than usual. the longer i sleep, the lazier i get.

Im in the same situation but its university work, so my headache is huge. I always try cutting the day up like get up early in the morning and relax a bit, then start after lunch finish working the early evening ay 6ish and then relax after that.
Its been working for me for a while now, and i used to be the king procrastinator. Also live sets during your working helps. Just think thats its for your benifit to get it done.

you just have to do it. everything you do to get ready to work is just more time procrastinating. just sit down and start.
actually staying off TA would be a good first step.

What I like to do is wait till I'm pressed for time and panic sets in. Then I finally get off my ass and do it. One time I had a paper due the next day, so I purposefully stayed up till 3am[becoming the due date] and started writing it then. It was due at 10am and it was a 10 page paper. I got an A, heh. However, I think my tactic only works for a small percentage of people.

That is inhuman to even think such a thing!
I just wrote a timetable that has got me in the mood to work, put it above my desk so i will try my best to follow it...i think it might work. I just worked out i actually have 28 hours of college work a week. But with this timetable i have an extra 31 hours of work away from college i will be doing each week....Quite good....if i stick to it.
Any more ideas will still be great, extra encouragement never hurts.

well its been 2 Hours since you posted this and you're still on. get to work!
turn off the computer.
prioritize your work, by think about the conseuqnces of not doing each one and the deadline, putting the worst consequences and closest deadline first, and sorting the rest out in a similar fashion, taking into consideration how long each one will take and how much time you have left.
come to think of it, i have stuff to do too, so g'by.
