I beg to differ. This is how I get my problem sets done. Self-
manipulation is one of the most difficult things I've ever learned
to do (also, by far the most distasteful), but if you can do it,
it works. Just mentally force whatever you're working on to become
the most interesting thing in the world (briefly) and you'll get it 
done much faster. You'll still hate it afterwards, though.
