    About this ebook

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

    #1 Procrastination is the act of putting things off, and it is a habit that can be difficult to change. We will explore what procrastination is, and help you decide whether you are a procrastinator. If you are, we will discuss how you likely experience a bout of procrastination.

    #2 Procrastination is when we voluntarily put off tasks despite believing ourselves to be worse off for doing so. When we procrastinate, we know we are acting against our own best interests.

    #3 Procrastination is when you put off doing something that you should be doing. It is a form of irrational delay. You can take a quiz on my website, www. procrastinus. com, to see how prone you are to procrastination.

    #4 The common pattern among all types of procrastination is that at the start of a big project, time is abundant. You wallow in its elastic embrace. You make a few passes at getting down to it, but nothing makes you feel wholeheartedly engaged. Then the day arrives when you really intend to get down to work, but suddenly you don’t feel like doing it.
