One approach is to consider that "thinking about a large project about
to start" is itself a task so you could look at adding a task for the
Friday, when you first scheduled the large task for the Monday, to tell
you start thinking...
This might sound silly but it can actually be quite useful if you get
into the habit of thinking about such aspects when you schedule tasks.
And, of course, you can group related tasks like these as subheadings
under a common headline.
Something to think about over the weekend ;-)
