3.0 out of 5 stars Ok, nothing revolutionary, January 6, 2002
By Travis Cottreau (Wellington, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The best thing about this book is that it's short and easy to finish.

Still, if you're a procrastinator, I don't think it will help you a whole lot. The rules are basic, what do you have to do to stop procrastinating? It's easy; you have to make a decision that you are going to do the things that are important for you and do them. That's what this book says for most of the book.

It's good advice, I would have to say, that's exactly the same advice that I would give to someone who wants to stop procrastinating.

On top of this, the author also gives reasons why we procrastinate, which may or may not be useful to you, it was somewhat useful to me, as it tells me that my situation is common enough to have a label. There is also a set of exercises in the book that is better than nothing at all, although a tried and true procrastinator is almost definitely going to avoid doing them.

The biggest deal with this book for me was to let me know that my procrastination problem isn't really bad at all. Some of the stories in this book were frightening, people who lose their lives over procrastination. There must be another word for procrastination, that isn't procrastination, it's much worse.
