Procrastination is an almost universal human experience. While many people attribute procrastination to laziness or a lack of drive, our real motivations to push back and delay important activities and decisions are more complicated than personal weakness. The truth is that humans are well-adapted for basic survival, but they are not so great at managing the stresses and expectations of modern life without a little help.

But what they lack is a correct understanding of their own minds, of motivation, and the way that it operates.

The 21 tactics are not new - What is new are the ways he shares how he implemented them. In our book club we spend 9 days reviewing this and it was powerful to have the level if dialogue about how we are each hindered by our own procrastination. Thanks for the book, thanks for the audio and thanks for the simple solutions. It's working!
