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

" This book helped me a lot. I'm definitely going to be rereading this book. Gave me some concrete steps to build motivation and overcome the feeling of being overwhelmed with work, and school. "

" This procrastination self-help CD offers a lot of the standard stuff like time management and realistic goals. But it also stresses planning play and pleasure time without guilt. It does include several nice guided relaxation sessions. "

" I found the first half of this quite interesting, and it had some good bits about recognizing which types of things cause you to procrastinate and why. I only skimmed the second half, it was more about dealing with procrastitors in various situations. "

" Just bought this (kindle for iPad is probably the best thing happened after discovering libraries). It was an impulse purchase but reviews are positive and this book will be my one (and quite likely only) self-help book. I have hopes that I can apply lessons learned in my teaching and course planning. "

" I only read Chapters 1, 2 & the last chapter. Gave some good insight into "the procrastinator" and ideas of how to manage being around one. Would have liked to read more of it, next time... "

" It's a good read. For those who procrastinate, this will help you see and be aware why you procrastinate. "

" Holy crap! What a great tool! If you want a strategy that can help you today to get over your procrastination, read this book. There's no tricks, just simple understanding. I recommended this for everyone. "

" I find the tips really useful, and have re-listened to some of the disks several times now. "

" I enjoyed reading this book. It has made me more aware of why and when I procrastinate, and also the power of scheduling guilt-free play time as a way to motivate myself to stay focused. "

" For those of us that have trouble getting things done in a timely matter this book has some suggestions on how to look at things differently so that you do get them done. "

" The second 'self help' book..... and I enjoyed this one too. I got a wee bit stuck at chapter 7 but other than that found it readable and helpful. I stuggle to give a self help book more than 3 stars, but its definately worth the 'i liked it'. "

" I always have trouble with the self-help books that have this programmed instruction and exercise regime that you are supposed to follow. This book is no exception, but its description of the roots of procrastination and the tools to overcome them are very worthwhile in their own right. "

" Not bad. I'll probably use some of the suggestions but I found the examples too specific and the stuff about meditation/relaxation exercises a bit off-topic. "

" This is a strange one. It is an attempt to help people overcome procrastination. The only problem is that the book is a real slow read. The phrasing is somewhat like a textbook which will probably make a lot of procrastinators quit this one. Good idea, execution is a little off. "

" I'll review it later. Does that tell you anything? "

" A very valuable resource. Well worth the read. "

" Some seminarians I visited were all reading this book and since procrastination has always been one of my problems I read it too. The main point seems, in retrospect, to allow oneself to have some fun as a reward for getting the scutwork done. "

" There should be a status for "re-reading," or "I'm going to read every day for the rest of my life like a devotional." "

" Self-help category....how to use reverse psychology with procrastination "

" Great framework. Have read good review of this book. "

" When two thirds of the book is dedicated to selling you on the other one third, I tune out very quickly. "

" This is an excellent book if you are a chronic procrastinator like myself. It has already helped me a lot. "

" Very interesting insights to the psychology of procrastination. "

" Absolutely beautiful take-aways in this one. I have 8 pages of (small type) notes on things I either didn't know of didn't have a decent grasp on. His language is probably a bit too PhD for people's likings, but this is a gem on getting time, confidence, fears, and procrastination in order. "

" After over two years on my bookshelves, I finally skimmed this book on procrastination. "

" Liking this a lot so far. Very CBT. Just what the doctor (counsellor really) ordered. "

" I only read Chapters 1, 2 & the last chapter. Gave some good insight into "the procrastinator" and ideas of how to manage being around one. Would have liked to read more of it, next time... "

" I recommended this book to anyone that has problems with procrastination and to those that interact with anyone with procrastination problems. "
