This won't be comprehensive so feel free to add in your 2 cents, I just wanna give you a nice little tip I found.
Find out why you want to do each particular small task, and wrestle with it until you reach a consensus and desire either way on the task (if you do not want to do it you need to know that so you can work on other things, don't string yourself along).
Find a "holy crap, yes, I want to do it now" reason for the tasks you do want to do. Not vague stuff like "cuz I need money" or "in the end I'll be rich" because you can get rich a lot of ways, even by sitting around doing very little work and just doing whatever you like (that isn't the likely outcome of that behaviour but even though controversial it can be done I'm sure).
Specific things are the best, "haha, they'll spit milk when they see this posted", "oh nice, I wanted to try something like that".
And if that doesn't work, or you forget the tasks, just stop and wait, and say to yourself "what have I forgotten to do?" and if you are avoiding it, ask why OR set a simpler goal you can stick to.
