C.R.A.P. is how we unwittingly and unconsciously victimize ourselves. It is what sabatoges careers, destroys relationships, creates unmanageable finances, and makes us forget about the need to exercise and eat properly. C.R.A.P. is with all the time, just looking for opportunities to destroy hope and minimize achievement. It becomes habitual and unconsicious, it lies unexamined, destroying without being acknowledged as the destroyer. We even blame our internal C.R.A.P. on external causes. The good news is that is can be conquered. Learn how to overcome the "C" (Catastrophizing), the "R" (Rationalizing), the "A" (Agonizing), and the "P" (Procrastination) that holds you back. You'll be surprised how easy it really can be.

Great book,
This review is from: Cut the CRAP and Resolve Your Problems (Paperback)
"Cut the CRAP and Resolve Your Problems" is one of, if not the best, self-help books of the past 5 years (That is -- besides the book I wrote, THE PROCRASTINATOR'S HANDBOOK.) Why? Because it delivers on its promise of being a simple yet compelling process to help each of us achieve our goals. What Drs. Cox and Sanders have done is to distill into four easy to remember words, the four things that we all do to get in our own way. These four words--Catastrophizing, Rationalizing, Agonizing and (my favoritie) Procrastinating--are explained in detail both as to what they are and how they act as obstacles to success. For example, if you are deeply in debt, it is primarily related to rationalizing. If you are still in the same job after 10 years, it is probably due to agonizing. And, of course, if that degree program isn't yet completed, it is probably due to procrastinating.The exercises are really helpful and I liked the way the authors recommend that you read the book first, then go back through and do the exercises. In summary, if you let it, this book can really make a difference in your life.
