I use that kind of reward system as well, to keep any possible "guilt" feelings about playing the computer games. (Which games are part of my distraction therapy )
Now, are you a list person at all? Even if you don't write a list, you can follow one in your head. You have your books in front of you, but do you need all of them at once? Take small steps, one at a time. Select which topic you will study first. Open that book. Don't push to do anything else right then. Go do something else. Come back and prepare your paper or computer or whatever you need to begin to study. Then go do something else. When you come back, agree to read a column, half a page or a topic/paragraph etc. If you need to make notes as you do that, do so, otherwise, leave it and go do something else. ....
Breaking "impossible" tasks down like that helps me get through things that simply MUST be done. Good wishes.
