Golden Book
| Customer Rating: | | This book nails it all. I was a bit scared with some of the reviews before buying. But thank goodness I brought. This book is far more worth then its price. This book have the content to change your life for betterment for ever. Thanks Neil for writing such a wonderful book. It really changed my attitude towards any work. |
Exciting stuff
| Customer Rating: | | I'm definitely planning on getting this book. First thing tomorrow. Or the next day... hopefully. |
Pretty good book!
| Customer Rating:  | | I'm not a usual reader of self-help books, but have been struggling with procrastination for awhile now. This book has given me some specific tools to deal with it, understand it, and not torment myself over it. |
The definitive book on the subject of procrastination.
| Customer Rating: | This book is by far the best book I've ever read on balancing your work and home life, especially if you struggle with procrastination and/or perfectionism.
That's a strong statement, but I've read lots of book on personal self-management and how to organize your time effectively (including "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen R. Covey and "Getting Things Done" by David Allen) -- and I can honestly say that, for me at least, "The Now Habit" is - by far - the best out of all of them.
If you struggle with having more balance and control over your home and work life, if you allow perfectionism or fear of failure (or success) to hinder your work productivity, or if you just want to start enjoying the good things that life has to offer - while at the same time improving your work efficiency and productivity ... then I highly urge you to get this book. You'll learn how to use time-proven tools (such as the Unschedule) and guidelines on how to make the most out of your life, and starting living life to its fullest extent.
I can't overestimate the value of the principles outlined in this book. Too often people who procrastinate feel angry and ashamed of their behavior - without doing anything to FIX the underlying problem. Neil Fiore not only explains why people tend to procrastinate, but he also provides valuable tools that you can use to overcome your bad habits, and replace them with positive and productive habits.
It's not an expensive or overly long book -- and the best part is that the tools mentioned in this book are quite flexible and can easily be melded with other techniques, such as those outlined in "Getting Things Done" by David Allen.
If you struggle with stress from overwork or procrastination, do yourself a favor and buy or borrow this book. You may have been soured on other books that claimed to help with your problems, but told you nothing more than what you already knew. But The Now Habit really identifies WHY we procrastinate, and gives you the means to overcome it - if you commit yourself to doing them.
Also, if you know someone who struggles with these problem, there's a chapter in the end that gives advice on how to deal with the procrastinators in your life. (Although I think this book would make a pretty good gift for them as well.) |
Excellent book ,identified all my problems...lets see if it works
| Customer Rating: | | Just finished my first read and am about to try to put it into practice. I have a good feeling that it will have positive effects. |
