 As Will Rogers once said, “Even if you’re on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there.”
What is procrastination? No, it's not laziness; it's an unresolved internal conflict. You need (or even want) to do a task but you also have resistance toward doing it. This creates an approach-avoidance conflict: Like a Hamlet in the world of action, you’re torn between two impulses—to do or not to do.
It’s About Time! begins by helping procrastinators understand the inner conflict that creates their self-defeating pattern. Without that knowledge, the predisposition to procrastinate continues to sabotage efforts to change.
Once you know your procrastination style: perfectionist, dreamer, worrier, defier, crisis-maker, overdoer. you can learn skills and strategies for change - specifically geared to your particular style.
This valuable book provides the reader with a 3-prong approach to change, helping you modify negative thinking, speaking and acting patterns that fuel your procrastination. It will teach you how to move from a path of avoidance to a path of resolution.
Don’t procrastinate. Take the quiz. Read the book. Don’t just sit there! Get on the road to making things happen!
Reviews by Readers
Lots of Great Suggestions
This book is great. It teaches you how to overcome your procrastination, based on your personality style. What is a good tip for me (a perfectionist) may not be a good one for someone else (a crisis-maker). The author described me to a tee in several scenarios.
A Helpful, Intelligent Book
This is a very useful book for those who are actually concerned with a personal problem of procrastination. You do not waste your time by reading it. It can actually help, because of the competence of the author, her capability to find the right words to suggest problems and ideas that can support people in their autoanalysis.
Practical, Helpful, Easy-to-Read
As a practicing psychotherapist, I found this book useful both with my patients and for myself. I particularly like the easy-to-read style and the way the author divided procrastinators into six different types so that everyone fits into one or another category, and there's practical help for each one of them.
Excellent for Understanding and Overcoming Procrastination
The book contains a test to help you identify your procrastination styles from among the six, which I found very enlightening. The sections that identify the causes of procrastination and ways to overcome them were extremely useful and produced very clear results. Highly recommended.
