Not to add injury to insult but I've grappled with the same and found this humorous to read - only because it hit so close to home (except for the Windows server, never Windows servers).
The only thing that's helped me grapple with this is Kaizen quite honestly. I'm not going to posit another book for you to read, but - there are a few good ones. Focusing on small tasks to break out of that mold was the only way I could circumvent the cyclical loop that I can only describe as an ungodly marriage of procrastination and "Squirrel!".
