I read this book about depression a few months ago and one of the chapters was about procrastination. The book suggested setting a timer for 5 minutes and to work on your project for that time. At the end of the 5 minutes, you can decide if you want to continue for another 5 minutes. Maybe you can apply this to your reading perhaps.

Thanks, tigerlily. I remember trying out something like that several months ago for reading textbooks. Maybe I should try it out for reading for pleasure.
Maybe I could try out reading the
wrong way? As in, pick a random chapter and read out of order? Maybe that might trick my brain a bit. Worth a shot.
That reminds me: anyone have an idea of how to write out a schedule? I know I need one, but again, I don't know how to start. :P Then I could have slots for reading a book, studying... but what if plans change? Ugh.
