Best way I've found to beat the brainworms and get things done? Make a motherfracking list, yo.
There are times when you're sitting in a dark place and your mind is slowly drowning in poisonous juices and all you can think about is how life is pissing in your cornflakes. If the actual problem is just not knowing what to do next, then get a pen and paper and free your brain. Write down what you'd say to a friend in the same situation. List your options, weigh up the pros and cons of each. Note down the things you don't know but can look into. Make a To Do list with little boxes to tick off, even if it's starting out with...
1) Clean the house
2) Go for a walk
3) Look for jobs
4) Beat those cats that keep having sex outside my window to death with a broom
...because I reckon things will look a teensy bit better after ticking those puppies off. Sometimes stepping outside of your own brain for a bit is all you need to get the ball rolling and decrease the size of the shit heap, even by just a little.
Mileage varying, etc.
