Don’t buy

Not worth it.
Read a lot of self-help books, this is nothing but common sense and basic knowledge, impossibly boring to listen too.
Read or listen to “Rewire” by Richard O’Connor instead, that book I’m listening for 5th time over now.

Great advice!

The Procrastination Cure really nails it! How does Damon know that I sneak off to Facebook or Words with Friends to avoid doing what I need to do? His concrete 21 steps are a big help.

Full of practical actions to stop procrastinating.

I loved it - particularly the breakdown of different types and reasons for procrastination and how to match up the right cure.

Awesome

Loved this audiobook I’ve heard it 3 times already and have made so much progress in my journey of taking action. Highly recommend.

I hate being a procrastinator

The author knows my habit and has given real-life tools to fix this. My procrastination is a lifelong bad habit that I want to eradicate from my life. I feel this book will help me make the necessary changes.

Very informative and to the point.

I like the way the author related his past stories and experiences to illustrate some material in the textbook.

Suicidal by Chapter 3

If you don’t already feel like a failure due to procrastination you will soon! Listen to ALL the ways you have ruined your life and all the horrible consequences spelled out in detail.

Not for me

Can’t get through the narrator. Read like someone who is trying to act like they think an actor would read it.

First part itself is just a litany of why the author thinks he’s cool enough to present this. I might be able to get further if not for the above.

Well written

A great step by step guide. Section two can be listened to over and over.

takes forever to get to the point

the whole first half is like those annoying commercials that are like "I accomplished this and here's the steps." then the video goes on and on and then wants you to buy the product. but in this case you already bought or are consuming said product! just get to the point 🤬

No value in this book or take away whatsoever

This book provides nothing else that a 15 minute article or a 10 minute YouTube video wouldn’t.

First, it lack content so much that it’s filled with tons menial examples, experiences and references to certain situations.

Second, any person who fells the need to fix procrastination knows for sure all the “tactics” the author pretends to slips as his.

Third, the core ideas would literally take 10 minutes to be explain in a clear and sufficient manner. Yet this book takes more than 3 hours at normal speed.

The writing is so plain and dull that is as boring to read as the phone guide.

After listening completely with the hope of some decent or applicable advice I’m so pissed that I regret the very first moment I downloaded it.

Amazing book

As I read the book was like an X ray of my life so practical that I have so many experiments to do and know what will work for me.I will definitely read the other books of the author on this series.I love the book

Brilliant

So much more helpful and practical than many other books on this subject (like Eat That Frog, which I think is rubbish).

Very good, i recommended it!

Excellent, well worth a read, he covers all angles of the subject,.. there's no escape! ;)
