I also struggle quite a bit. The way mines set up, I have between 2-6 things due every Monday and Friday. I can sometimes work through it during the week, but seeing the due date and knowing I don't have to do it then makes me put it off. Then I take forever on said days doing loads of work.

That was hard to get over as a kid. As a parent I still dont tell the kid when something is due such as appointments. I just tell him we’re leaving at three, not that the appt is at four.
Basically, try “lying” to yourself. Don’t think “it’s due Friday”, think instead, “I need to have it done by Wednesday”, for example.

Then log off of here, and go finish one assignment. You can come back after that one, but for no more than 15 minutes. Then go do another one.

I never thought I would be on a chicken site trying to get the kid to do their homework!

How do you eat an elephant.

One bite at a time.

Section off pieces, knock them off your plate one by one until it’s done.

Time to form this into an actual post- do you guys have any tips for focusing on work/destressing/getting things done (especially schoolwork that you're not interested in?)?

Destressing -- repeatedly punch a pillow that has been taped to the wall.

Finished English. Just have to do history, then I"m done.

I- I understand the metaphor but you talking about eating an elephant is so bizarre that I just paused and stared at my screen for a solid 10 seconds.

Even punching the pillow, you can still break bones in your hand.

I think that not having a phone is definitely my friend.
