Book Reviews of The Now Habit: A Strategic Program for Overcoming Procrastination and Enjoying Guilt-Free Play

Book Review: Some Great Insights But Lots of Filler
Summary: 3 Stars

This easily readable book really contains some gems of psychological insight into the root causes of and remedies for procrastination. Unfortunately, like many self help books, this key insights are packed inside pages of prosaic, predictably stale anecdotes about "real" people. I skimmed/ skipped though them all, and got through the whole book in about an hour and a half. All in all, it is definitely worth a read since it contains a few ideas that may really impact your life positively, but it would be better written as a 20 page pamphlet rather than a 150+ page book.

Summary of The Now Habit: A Strategic Program for Overcoming Procrastination and Enjoying Guilt-Free Play

Originally published by Tarcher in 1988, The Now Habit has sold more than 58,000 copies, and is as relevant as ever!

Author Neil Fiore offers the first comprehensive strategy to overcome the causes of procrastination and to eliminate its deleterious effects. His techniques will help any busy person get more things done more quickly, without the anxiety and stress brought on by failure to meet the workplace's pressing deadlines.

This revised, redesigned edition includes a new introduction and a section that provides strategies to understand and deal with the complex role technology plays in procrastination today.
