The Now Habit: A Strategic Program for Overcoming Procrastination and Enjoying Guilt-Free Play

Probably the most useful book on breaking the procrastination habit that I have ever read. Just by changing self-talk, I find I can break through resistance and get working on a project. Re-framing the motivation for a task from "I have to" (someone else is making me do this) to "I choose to" (this whole thing is my decision) changes my feelings about a task. It was also nice to find validation for a technique that I have always used: schedule in the fun and make the not-so-scintillating tasks fit in around it.
Maybe I will eventually get my walls painted and the house de-junked after all. Resistance is futile!
