Understand why you procrastinate and how to change!
Here are some of the things my book will do:
. Through self-diagnostic quizzes, it can help you define your procrastination style(s), be it Perfectionist, Dreamer, Worrier, Defier (including passive-aggressive), Crisis-Maker or Overdoer.
. It will help you understand how your personality, environment and family influenced your pattern.
. It shows you how to change the pattern with a 3-prong approach that teaches you more effective ways of thinking, speaking and acting.
. It will give you many ideas about how to motivate yourself to stay on track, no matter how discouraged you may feel.
Wouldn't it be great if this year you could turn things around, take charge and be on top of tasks instead of always feeling regret, guilt, or embarrassment because you didn't do what you were supposed to or promised yourself you would do!
Dr. Linda Sapadin is an adjunct professor at Hofstra University and a clinical psychologist who specializes in helping people overcome self-defeating patterns. Dr. Sapadin lives in Valley Stream, New York.
