Sample Book Insights:

#1 The six warning signs of procrastination are: life feels like a long series of obligations that cannot be met, you are unrealistic about time, you are vague about your goals and values, you are unfulfilled, frustrated, and depressed, and you are indecisive and afraid of being criticized for making a mistake.

#2 Procrastination is a habit that can be extremely destructive to your life. It can lead to missed deadlines, lost sales, and broken relationships. It can also lead to anxiety, guilt, and deep regrets about life’s missed opportunities.

#3 The Now Habit is based on the Positive Psychology of Dr. Martin Seligman, who believes that humans have the ability to be positive and active. We only procrastinate when we fear a threat to our sense of worth and independence.

#4 The key fear that stems from over-identifying who you are with your work is the fear of judgment. From this fear follows the counterproductive drive toward perfectionism, severe self-criticism, and the fear that you must deprive yourself of leisure time in order to satisfy some unseen judge.
