My whole professional career I struggled with certain tasks - mostly paperwork related, I try to avoid them as much as I can. While I love technical job and hands on I can't force myself to do necessary paperwork and this does have an impact on how I'm being seen by my boss.<p>How do you deal with such things? My goal is to push mentally these tasks into "it's not that bad to do".
I do that by breaking the boring task into chunks of size one - one page, one text file, one paragraph - and doing that one chunk in between tasks I enjoy. Enjoyable task for half hour, 5 minutes on next chunk, enjoyable task for half hour, 5 minutes on next chunk...<p>"One" is the magic number for me, make it anything greater and my brain seems incapable of understanding 2/3/4 != infinity, collapsing itself into the procrastination pit.
