better every day August 16, 2008 Oliver Holloway (Chicago) The techniques work. I've been a hard-core procrastinator for all my five decades -- heck, I was even late being born -- but this book has changed my life in less than a month. When you're ready to change, this is the book to buy -- read it, and follow its wisdom.
The "unschedule" is the best day planner ever May 24, 2008 Lisa Rothstein (los angeles, CA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Please stop beating yourself up long enough to read this book. I have gotten more done on languishing projects in less time and had much more fun in my life since applying the "Unschedule" instead of my former process that began with an impossible to-do list followed by a day of procrastination and an evening of regret and guilt (sound like fun?). This is a new way of thinking about planning your time that not only works but makes you enjoy your time more. If you have any guilt over things you haven't done (calling all writers!) read this book and take a sigh of relief.
A life changing experience! April 27, 2008 David M. Waite (Craig, CO) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is the single most effective book I have found to deal with the problem of procrastination. It approaches the problem from a new perspective that really hits home for a life-long procrastinator. Thank you, Dr. Fiore, for the real help instead of just another book telling you to do it now!
This book rocks April 15, 2008 desert gypsy (NJ USA) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book rocks. It delves into the real reasons behind why we procrastinate. For example, it gives me insight into why I am writing this review instead of preparing for a very important meeting that I have tomorrow. Hopefully, it will help you and I get closer to achieving our goals.
Start with disk 6 April 12, 2008 Kirstin (Acton, MA United States) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I really like this book and even as I am just beginning to implement Dr. Fiore's tips I can see a change. I must say that the first couple of disks are hard to listen to, I would start with disk 5 or 6, continue on to 7 and then start back with disk 1 and continue through. Having context for where the book is headed makes the early disks much more helpful. I recommend this book highly, non the less.
