Maybe not an advice but an idea: postponing is never making the task easier. Sometimes waiting too long can make it obsolete/useless. Waiting for mood or willingness can mean that you never do it. Force your self to do it no matter what, designate specific time for the task. Divide it into smaller steps and reward yourself after accomplishing each of it. This would not work for math, but could help with writing essays/articles- start with enumerating 10 issues, then write 10 ideas for each issue, then write a paragraph about each idea. And finally - if there is no deadline, there is no task. Time is a scarce resource, you have to deliver something before the due time, even if it's not perfect, even if it doesn't solve all the problems. Good luck!
