The flip side of this is productive procrastination, where you do all the menial tasks before doing the task you don't want to do. Generally you aren't even aware you're doing and most people can go their entire lives never knowing the term exists, and yet they'll do it all the time.

You can't fix a problem you can't identify.

You're welcome and I'm sorry.
