How do I stop procrastinating?

I'm a student and I have a major problem with procrastination. What are ways I can stop procrastinating/get better at being disciplined and getting my work done?

Update:

Please give me an answer other than "just do it" or "have more discipline". Those are obvious answers. I know I need to work on that. However, I'm asking on yahoo answers because I would like advice on any methods/ways that are less obvious in which I can combat procrastination.

Thank you.

    As a student I had the same problem but found the answer was to just buck up and force myself. After you do that a few times you learn that it is doable and it becomes easier. In my senior year I found that life got MUCH easier to do projects as soon as possible rather than putting them off to the last minute. Sorry, no magic bullet.
