Publisher's Summary
If you are looking for a proven path to avoid procrastination and achieve your goals in less time, then keep reading.
Procrastination is a very bad habit. We all probably know that we shouldn’t procrastinate, but sometimes we just do it anyways.
Sometimes procrastination makes us feel better for a moment, but the reality is that this behavior will lead to failure.
If you keep telling yourself “Hey, it's okay, I can do it tomorrow,” then over time you won't achieve your long term goals.
If you want to succeed, then you have to be committed to doing what you need to do, even if you don’t like it.
But it’s not always so easy.
Everything starts with understanding procrastination.
If you want to turn your dreams into reality, then you need a roadmap. If you understand exactly what procrastination is and why people do it, then you can start to change your life.
In this book you’ll discover:
- What procrastination is and why people do it
- Why procrastination is not only a problem, but something bigger
- How to permanently stop yourself from procrastinating
- How you can achieve your goals in less time thanks to focus
What science says....
In this book, you'll find many scientific references about what happens in your brain when you procrastinate and what happen when you build a new habit.
Understanding the biological principles of your behavior helps you take control of your decisions.
Focus on what works....
Once you have understood the basics of procrastination, you can start to build new strong habits and focus on what can lead you to success.
And you can do this:
- Even if you are a serial procrastinator
- Even if you think that you can never change
- Even if you think you have no time for change
Start today to build the life you deserve!

This is a great book, and something I wish I’d read long ago. While I’ve learned several of the principles in the book by trial and error, it’s nice to have them all in one place.

This book is very clear, even fun and beautiful at times. It makes you think a lot about your own patterns of procrastination, about the fears you might have. I certainly don't know everything about procrastination, but I really think that this book adresses everything or almost everything that you need to know.
