Unlike the other commentor, I actually know what procrastination is since I have been a repeat offender in the past.
I don't do it as much now, since I have sadly learnt my lesson.
One of the main ways to fight the war against procrastination is time management. I know it's cliche and may be "impossible" for some people, but it's worth it. Make like a time schedule where bạn không gian things out and plan your days out. For example, as soon as bạn get home, basically lock yourself in your room and avoid ALL distractions (no computer, no TV, no texting, no parents/siblings to talk to, no staring at the tường since it's thêm interesting than homework). Do your hardest homework first. Work for about an giờ hoặc so, then take like a 15 một phút break to do whatever bạn do for fun. Then when the 15 phút in over, go back to your quiet place and get back to work. Keep up this routine till all your homework is done. Once you're done, reward yourself with like an giờ of fun (if it's not too late). I know it's hard to stop procrastination once bạn start (it's practically an addiction), but just go straight at the work head-on. No stalling,just dedicated work.
Also, I find it easier to not temporize if bạn do homework with friends, even if it's over the phone. Call them up and say, "hey wanna work together?" Even if it's mostly awkward silence where you're both working, it'll keep bạn focused and decrease your temptation to go do something else.
And as for studying, I set aside a separate time (about 45 phút a day) to go over all notes I took in class to make sure I understood everything and got the gist. It's MUCH easier to break stuff up and do a little each ngày than to cram hoặc do all your homework at 10:00 at night.
Lastly, if your procrastination is getting so bad to the point that it's affecting your amount of sleep and grade in school, talk to your parents. I know you'll think it's a dumb, childish thing to do, but it HELPS. Tell them that bạn need them to keep bạn focused and make sure bạn get your homework done as soon as bạn come trang chủ from school. That way, they'll nag bạn to complete it all.
Sorry I couldn't be of thêm help, but I was finally cured of my procrastin-itis last năm after my first AP course. I really hope bạn change your work habits because, talking from personal experience here, if not it'll come back and bite bạn in the ass. lol
