You're not lazy. Your task is stuck.

That form on the counter, the box by the door, the call you've meant to make for months: most tasks we put off are ordinary tasks with an obstacle hidden inside them. Find the obstacle, and the task starts moving.

From Putting It Off to Getting It Done gives you ten simple tools for doing exactly that. You'll learn how to:

• Pinpoint what is really blocking you

• Turn a vague to-do into one clear next step

• Plan around the week you really have

• Get past the spot where you always stall

• Pick the task back up after a missed day

• Finish the last step and send it off

 

Each short chapter ends with a five-minute exercise on your own task, and eleven worksheets are included. Pick one task you've been avoiding. By the last page, it can be done.
