What I think rather is procrastination is part of working, studying and other cultures. Whichever part of life you are in, its kind of inevitable. The more important thing however is to balance between your work and it. At times, I feel like I procrastinate too much, so I too might be looking for solutions at those times. However I have managed to learn some of the things which I want to share.
1- As soon as you get assignment, just go through the questions, I won't say start attempting right then, just go through questions and understand what they are asking. With this, along the time you will find so many things that may help in solving your problem, that when you start them, you will have good headstart.
2- If you think you are spending lots of time online, use that online time to gather some knowledge. See what field are you interested in. I myself am interested in photography, so whenever I start procrastinating, I divert toward the photography related forums, I start looking for pictures taken by masters, look around for good photo blogs, discussion about contemporary photography et al. That way while I am procrastinating too, I am learning something, and I don't feel like I have wasted my time. And when I think I am spending wayy too much time online, I just take my camera and head out for stroll, I take lots of pictures some day, some day I just stroll around.
3- When there is lots of things going on too, procrastination gives kind of break from the monotonous works I would be doing. Last week I had to work on this presentation for a departmental seminar I was giving. I did not have much of works to show because my simulation were not calibrated right yet. so what I started doing, procrastination. But along the procrastination, I found myself building an idea about presenting the presentation on more interesting way, and started writing it down in a paper. I think procrastination kind of helped me that day. When I gave my presentation, everybody loved it. My professor asked for my slides to use in his class. So procrastinantion is not totally bad, you just have to learn to balance it, and maybe learn things or two from it.
If any of you have find way to get over it, please let me know too.
