Book
Overcoming procrastination: a self-help guide using cognitive behavioural techniques
On the shelf? Just pop in.
Struggling to start important tasks, even when you know the consequences? This practical guide draws on clinical expertise and research to tackle procrastination at its roots, all grounded in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). The book dismantles common myths about motivation and willpower, exposing delay as a struggle with emotional regulation, rigid thinking and environmental triggers. You'll discover why distant deadlines feel harmless, how negative automatic thoughts fuel avoidance, and why 'productive procrastination' sabotages your goals. Whether you want to improve academic success, productivity at work, or simply stop delaying what matters, this resource offers a compassionate, structured path forward.
