procrastination advice?

intro: So, I've taken the test three times, and each time landed on ENTJ. I'm a college student and was wondering if anyone in here has as big of a problem with procrastination as I do. I've already searched in the sub about procrastination and found someone with a similar problem but no advice I would remember or put into use.

Main question: How come when I procrastinate it feels almost normal? I always joke that procrastination helps me work harder later, and to an extent it does. But I always end up at my desk, trying to write a 4-page essay in 30-minutes because I waited till the last second as always. No matter how early I jump on an assignment or project, I ALWAYS end up pushing it back and back until I have to rush through it and turn in a poor excuse of an assignment. I'm just hoping someone in this sub has had a similar issue and is like-minded enough to give advice that will actually stick with me.

Extra thoughts: I sometimes think it has something to do with my lack of interest in work my brain deems unnecessary. Or if I have a whole week for an assignment, why start on it the day I get it? The worst part is that each time I procrastinate I KNOW it's going to lead to a shitty experience later down the road, and still do it every single time.
