I am naturally wired as a procrastinator and what I do to avoid it taking over my life is define limits around it. I set a goal that the task must be "started" in X hours or days depending on the need. I think less about defining when it should be completed as that tends to drive my procrastination. Defining tasks in terms of starting instead avoids triggering my procrastination. Usually once I start a task the desire to procrastination abates.
