I found the best way to get started in the morning is to leave myself specific notes on the next day's calendar for my first 3 tasks. For example, "email Mom re laundry," "do calculus problems 1 thru 5," "Outline Ch 1 of PolySci report". Then set a specific time and place to start work (maybe a desk or table). When you sit down [note: don't lie down; stay away from the bed monster], have your coffee or other beverage handy, or do without. The key is to begin. By the time you have done your first 3 tasks, you should be on a roll which will let you easily move on to your other studies. Good luck!
