THE ART OF PROCRASTINATION A Guide To Effective Dawdling, Lollygagging, and Postponing, Including an Ingenious Program For Getting Things Done By Putting Them Off

With a charming brand of vocal confidence and one of the clearest baritone voices in audio, Brian Holsopple does a wonderful job of delivering these observations on why we don’t do what we say is important to us. His comfort with himself helps make this laid-back writing sound even more relaxed and inviting. The author, an academic philosopher, says that “structured procrastinators” are not just arrogant or self-defeating people with their heads in the sand. They usually are quite productive, though not in conventional, linear ways. With his common-sense suggestions for improving bad habits, Perry’s message of self-acceptance is a moving invitation for procrastinators to stop beating themselves up and take a fresh look at how they manage their time and lives.
