About this deal

Excellent tips for someone like myself who takes on more than I can handle therefore I procrastinate because I am so overwhelmed. Persistence us firmly sticking to something for a prolonged period of time, even as we encounter things that try to unstick you. Instead, embracing the possibility of judgment, rejection, and failure allows us to grow, improve, and ultimately achieve success by taking action despite our apprehensions. Main takeaways for me were to bundle pleasant things with dull or uncomfortable things that I have to learn or get done. It requires a set of qualities that empower you to create the life you desire, free from compromising, procrastination, or any sort of unnecessary delays.

The book is concise ; moreover, there is a summary of the eight chapters at the end of the book, which is useful in case one needs a reminder a few months after reading it.It discusses why we are sometimes stuck and gives detailed, step-by-step solutions you can start using today. Having the capacity and potential to see projects through till the end or completion holds tremendous significance. And all too often, we don’t bother looking past what’s in front of us because what’s in front of us is easy and convenient. By identifying the paths of least resistance that lead to productivity, you can make it easier for yourself to follow through and stay on track.

As a list of practical tips and ideas for beating procrastination and following through on your plans, it's a good book to have. Making a productive system with a calendar, delegating and automating are some other things i found resonated with me.background so that we don’t even realize that our discipline is lapsing until it’s too late and all of our past efforts have been wasted. A system becomes routine so that you do not have to think about what you need to do, but instead you just do it. The content itself is unoriginal; if you know anything at all about productivity or habit development, this will not teach you anything new. Before completely giving up, think carefully about whether it is fear or laziness that is holding you back from taking actions. Following through is a skill that allows you to create the life you truly desire rather than settling for the one you now have.

Make a list of your limitations and requirements with clear statement on what you cannot and must do. Overall, I learned a lot from this book, and have developed some great tools to avoid not following through with my word. Waiting for a future reward is often not sufficient to motivate your present self because your present self does not want to wait. They are a combination of traits that enable you to create the life you want – without having to compromise or wait. External motivators drive you forward out of fear of something unpleasant, while internal motivators make you feel that reaching your goal is going to give you a big reward and lots of pleasant benefits.

They are a combination of traits that enables you to create the life you want - without having to compromise or wait.

Then you are sorely disappointed when you cannot deliver, and those big expectations have actually caused a negative effect on your working spirit. The end of the chapter has a summary that was helpful if you're like me and started zoning out towards the end of each one, which I appreciated. There could be a myriad of factors that hold people back that go beyond the over simplified reasons of "You fear success. Simple to understand and implement, I found its really helped me to map out a route to a habit of finishing!It touches many points and it gives practical examples of how to apply them (it doesn't go too deep into the details but it's good enough to get your started). It took a Goodreads friend asking me how the progress was coming along to jog my memory and help me finish what I'd started when I opened this book months ago. I see this book got a lot of hate because it was "too basic" and "common knowledge", but I personally find it revitalizing to bring it back to the basics. Good time management involves the ability to schedule tasks and the ability to recognize which tasks are best done when. Peter Hollins has studied psychology and peak human performance for over a dozen years and is a bestselling author.
