Use the 5 minute rule.
If you're too lazy to do something important then convince yourself to do it for just 5 minutes. Usually once you're there and after the 5 minutes you'll just keep going.
Hardest part is nutting up and getting started.
And if you can't discipline yourself to do a task for only 5 minutes....well I think ya gotta bigger problem and have to be honest with yourself on how serious you are about whatever it is you're putting off.

This cut deep, and Im not even OP
I tried, fell asleepI always wondered if meditation could help solve this issue
I read somewhere that your brain has a 3-second rule. If you think of something you need to do and don't do it in 3 seconds, your brain tells you why you shouldn't do it.
They said, count down from 3, and get up and do it in that time. I just take ages to get to 1, and my brain has already done the hard work of convincing me otherwise by then.

I confirm that it's a good lead.
Forbid yourself for 3 days which attracts your brain.
Working will seem more interesting to you.
