I've experienced similar feelings, and find some exercises from "The Now Habit" to help.

There's an exercise he calls the focusing exercise which involves taking five mintues to get in flow state before starting, which helps, and also found the advice to reframe "How soon can I finish" to "When can I start?" to help as well.
