Summary of Timothy A. Pychyl's Solving the Procrastination Puzzle

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview:

#1 Procrastination is the voluntary delay of an intended action despite the knowledge that this delay may harm the individual in terms of the task performance or even just how they feel about the task or themselves.

#2 We need to make conscious effort to change our habits. We need to make decisions to act in a different way, counter to our habitual response. We can use these decisions to reduce the effects of potential distractions and cope more effectively with setbacks and disappointments as we work toward changing our behavior.

#3 To begin to change your habits, you must first identify which delays are voluntary and which are not. Those are the delays you want to tackle. Knowing this distinction is a good place to start.
