The Art Of Procrastination: A Guide To Effective Dawdling, Lollygagging And Postponing (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
The book is really helpful and humorous. I think it is really useful that he gave us procrastinators an entire new way to think of procrastination: not as a mental disease but as a habit to take advantage of. Additionally, he brilliantly suggested that we, instead of fighting against procrastination fruitlessly, chose a way to live with it and make it work to our favor. I love the book and have recommended it to my peer. not much in this book. ok some people never get anything done and would be real proscratinators ... there are probably a few of them, there is survival instinct that keeps everybody moving and do something to keep alive ! then there are the structured proscratinators, a new concept, for the ones that get things done but not exactly the things they should be doing ...this is so broad now that anybody can feel a bit in this category for posponing doing things they don't want to do ...and yes it's good to have to do list, do some planning with milestones and reminders, and work with others to stimulate yourself and team up with people that even if they also postpone things for themselves, will feel more responsible because they work with you and feel useful ! all good stuff but I was expecting a bit more content, analysis, advice, methods ...it is not a self-help book, more a philosophical paper to say no drama, no need to blame yourself, instead focus a bit, team up with a good Buddy and get some stuff you care about done !

Not too great. I expected a little more from a professor at Stanford.
