About this listen
Do you struggle to complete tasks, meet deadlines, or stay focused? If so, you’re not alone. In this age of distraction, it’s all too easy to postpone taking action, even when we know we shouldn’t. This leads to chronic stress and guilt, missed opportunities for growth and success, and the nagging sense that we’re falling behind.
As revealed in this accessible and actionable guide, beating procrastination requires more than just willpower, motivation, or time management. Synthesizing hundreds of cutting-edge studies in the fields of psychology, behavioral economics, and neuroscience, Solving Procrastination offers a roadmap to understanding why you put things off, and how to tackle the problem once and for all. You’ll discover:
- The internal tug of war behind procrastination – pitting the drive to act against the drive to delay
- The surprising role of perfectionism – which both helps and hinders productivity
- The nine types of procrastinators – from the Rebel to the Zigzagger
- The top ten anti-procrastination strategies – along with tips, case studies, insights for neurodiverse readers, and more.
Written by a seasoned social scientist who used these strategies to overcome his own procrastination problem, this book will help you get things done, so you can reach your goals, keep growing, and achieve more happiness, health, and success on your own terms.
