Do you ever find yourself putting off something that you need to do but you don't want to do? Even though you know you are doing it? And even though it makes you feel guilty? If so, you are one of millions of procrastinators, and this book can help you. Unlike other books on the subject, it starts by explaining the common causes of procrastination, which can range from the psychological (fear of failure, or performance anxiety) to the practical (the task is boring or repulsive). This understanding will form the first step of your journey from procrastination to productivity - a journey in which you will be accompanied all the way by Adrian Tannock, an ex-procrastinator who is now a prolific author and coach, with qualifications in hypnotherapy and NLP.
Drawing on the latest theory and research, this book offers a fresh take on the reasons why people procrastinate, and provides practical strategies to help readers stop delaying, complete tasks, and fulfill their potential. Readers will learn steps for treating themselves with compassion, rather than harsh judgements, to better regulate the negative emotions that are the source of procrastination.
