About this episode

Procrastination.


It is a problem that we all have in some areas of our lives. Be it balancing the budget, filling a legal brief, or painting the spare bedroom - anything we have delayed in favour of more pressing or pleasurable pursuits. We all have tasks and goals we attempt to delay - or totally escape.


Procrastinators still get most of these tasks and projects completed on time and in good order... but the pressure and the stress they accumulate along the journey causes unnecessary anxiety and diminishes the quality of the end result.


This book offers a solution - a cure for procrastination. Whether you are a professional, an entrepreneur, a middle manager, a writer, or a student who wants to overcome problems with procrastination (or if you simply want to become more efficient in completing complex and challenging tasks) - we hope this episode will help you get results.
