By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 You may be a high-achiever, but you still may feel overwhelmed by the amount of things you have to do. You may be doing everything you can, but you’re still not getting everything done. The shoulds of life constantly tap you on the shoulder, reminding you not to forget about them.

#2 I had an overcommitment problem, which is when you have too much to do and always feel behind. The fear of disappointing someone constantly chased me. I had been reactive about my life, rather than being proactive.

#3 Procrastination has always been a silent companion of mine. I knew it was there, but I preferred to ignore it. I didn’t really think it was a problem. Everyone procrastinates on something, I reasoned.

#4 I was always busy, but I found that I was also procrastinating on good things. On creative things. On dreams that would make my heart sing.
