The Procrastination Cure: 21 Proven Tactics For Conquering Your Inner Procrastinator, Mastering Your Time, And Boosting Your Productivity! Paperback – May 21, 2017

Observation -- to impound great thoughts into one's brain requires that the data flow path include repetition. Do you recall learning the multiplication tables? Repetition!!This book is EXTREMELY powerful with many nuggets of 'how to' CURE PROCRASTINATION. I.E., very effective bench posts are numbered, presented, and explained. The book, however, describes them rather briefly; or more accurately, without prolific prose of EXAMPLES. I.E., I'd appreciate creating ficticious characters who suffer from a particular affliction and by employing a certain approach they succeed. Possibly two or three characters for each nugget.Lacking this word bulking method, I offer another approach = PLAN TO READ THIS BOOK MULTIPLE TIMES. Each chapter is of length such that they can easily be digested in 10 minutes each. Set aside 10 minutes each day to: (-1-) read ONE chapter each time. THEN: (-2-) reflect on such topic and how YOU CAN APPLY IT TO YOURSELF. READ/LEARN then APPLY TO YOU. And I also strongly urge NOT consuming multiple chapters at one setting. Do only ONE CHAPTER. Don't just read descriptions but ACTIVELY do a TOTAL consumption; I.E. "7 × 8 = 56," must be instant recall.Plan to(-A-) Read book to get a survey of steps.(-B-) Re-Read book to deeply understand and memorize.(-C-) Re-Read to fully connect step to YOU.

As I was reading this book, I made one simple observation: I procrastinated reading it because I’ve become accustomed to living a procrastinator’s life and I was afraid of the work I needed to do to change it.This learning was worth 10 times the price of the book.Damon writes a very simple (not simplistic) and helpful book here that is filled with practical ideas. Don’t just read it. Practice it!My name is Jim, and I am a chronic procrastinator…

This book, The Procrastination Cure, is a positive "one of a kind on Procrastion" to assist you in challenging your procrastination choices by using various techniques and recommendations. Very often, many people push off doing a "to do item" that needs to be done. We realize the importance, but since it takes time and effort, we would rather do something enjoyable. Later, as time progresses forward, we realize that this "to do item" now has some serious consequences from not being done. Our feelings are impacted in a negative way, bringing on a feeling of guilt. How can I be better at getting important "to do's completed". Please take a look at this "copied" statement from tactic 3 - "Reward Yourself" - But what if you could enjoy the fun activities while still completing everything on your to-do list? You can! It’s just a matter of setting up a smart reward system. Zahariades, Damon. The Procrastination Cure: 21 Proven Tactics For Conquering Your Inner Procrastinator, Mastering Your Time, And Boosting Your Productivity! (p. 73).

The item was fine but my package was totally opened when I got it out of the mail box. Guess it wasn’t what someone else was looking for.

I purchased The Procrastination Cure to work on my bad procrastination habits and find tips and tricks that might work for me. I enjoyed the organized, applicable, and very easy to read tactics. I found myself motivated to work on my procrastination and liked that the author could relate to your problems and offer solutions that have worked for him. I can understand how the tactics can be repetitive or dull for those who have read self-help books before and I did find part I of the book to be sort of boring as well. Lifeless, tedious, and repetitive for the veteran self-help reader; engaging and motivating for a rookie like me. ⅗ stars.

I’ve battled procrastination for many years, it just seems easy to do things that are more fun vs. work ...Having read several books in recent years I have been working on it and seeing improvements. This book has 21 clear steps to help incorporate into your life, to build new, good habits.For me, I think procrastination happens due to overwhelm, stress or lack of sleep, perfectionism, and making too many to-do list items. ;) And all the tech distractions , and Netflix...I have been making some changes and love it. The other day I cleaned out my closet and dresser of stuff I didn’t want or need, itemized and took it to Goodwill. Now things look better, aren’t jam packed in, and my life is a bit less cluttered.Awesome! Now I plan to keep practicing the new good habits until they are more ‘normal ‘ for me, and reread the book. Actually I think I’ll type the list and tape it to mirror or cupboard door as a daily reminder of my new path.Many thanks to the author for this book. Learning is great, but still you must apply and do it. He has many tips to assist.

Zahariades has provided the answers to questions i have struggled with most of my life: why do i procrastinate? What can i do to stop it? And the strategies he recommends are simple, though not easy, and very practical.

I think so many of the reviews are funny because as a procrastinator it did take me awhile to actually get to this book. I’m not good at making my own deadlines. But now that I’ve dug into it it’s been very enjoyable and knowing that the writer has also been a procrastinator and gives lots of examples and references to how to overcome this pesky habit, makes this book speak to me that much more. Ready or not to make a change in your life check this one out. It has practical advice that’s simple and relatable. Decide you are ready to make a change and buy this book.
