Normally I would rate this book 3 stars but I decided to be rate higher as I need to battle procrastination constantly so it is something important for me.

There are important wisdom in the book like having a meeting with yourself (self reflection) and stop being a hamster. However, a lot of points are repeated and most of the pictures are re-used again and again. There is a lack of actionable tips in the book.

What I like is this book helps to reinforce most of the concepts I already learnt. ( )

The primary purpose of this book was to explain the theory behind procrastination and provide several tools to rein it under control. The author proposes that the underpinning of procrastination lies in failings of motivation, discipline, outcome (vision), and objectivity. Each becomes a chapter in this book with an fuller descriptions and the necessary tools to bolster these areas. I particular liked the chapter on objectivity, which could also be used with people suffering from depression. Each chapter is illustrated with cartoons that enable the reader to better understand the theory and necessary tools to diminish procrastination. I would recommend this to any one who is a chronic procrastinator or to anyone, like myself, who teaches high-school or college psychology classes or college success courses. ( )

Boy do I have a problem with procrastination. I procrastinated reading this, working through the points and even writing this review. I want to feel the peace that one gets when they get things done, in a timely manner. Don't get me wrong I take care of my level A important stuff, it's the B level daily grind stuff I avoid till it bites me in the behind, I need help with. When I saw this book I was thrilled it was thin so I could get through it quickly and get back to avoiding getting that B stuff done. Well, this book needs to be read slowly in bits. Yeh, it requires time to think and absorb the steps. Time I could have been off procrastinating, darn it. There are four sections, only four uncomplicated solutions and steps to follow to relieve the stress and start functioning productively.
I liked the simplicity of it and the facts it covered. It had scientific facts, lots of background on the whys. I don't know if will work long term but I'm working at it. SO far so good, and my stress level has gone down. it's nice to not be behind. ( )
