Do you tend to exhaust all of your entertainment possibilities before getting something done?

I don't tend to, but doing so is a temptation I must refuse often enough to understand your point. The sooner I get it done, the sooner my conscience stops bugging me.

Yeah, I find it hard to get to the work, for the same reason. I'm trying to use a more disciplined approach, but so far that's not working for me. What can we do?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
