Fantastic book, helped me so much!

What did you love best about How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time!?

How useful it was. I have read a LOT of books in this genre and found so many of them to be full of nonsense and a chore to get through. This was to the point and gave me advice I could ACTUALLY apply and not just a lot of nonsense.

Have you listened to any of Christian Erickson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

First time but great narration.

Any additional comments?

I cannot recommend this highly enough. For the extremely cheap price, I was shocked how good it was. Awesome content. to the point, great narration.

Helped me loads, covered everything i needed and within days I found myself basically getting more stuff done! Thanks

Just what the doctor ordered!

What made the experience of listening to How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time! the most enjoyable?

This book is exactly what I needed in my life. It called me out on a few bad habits (organising drawers and cupboards when I should be working!) and helped me understand and change them. I think all of us procrastinate from time to time so this is a book that will be relevant to pretty much anyone. Very helpful!

What does Christian Erickson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I really love the narrator's voice. I found the book immediately engaging because of his tone and delivery.

Incredibly inspiring

Where does How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time! rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The best self help book by far that i've heard. Well laid out and inspiring. The narrator captures the tone of the writer perfectly.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes I listened to the whole thing start to finish as it was so engaging but it's also laid out in such a way that you can leap back and forth into sections. Great for a quiet afternoon or the drive to work.

Any additional comments?

It was broken up into nice digestible parts that were full of great ideas and lessons on how to overcome procrastination. I was guilty of so many of the points that the book talked about but it wasn't till I heard them so clearly explained that I was able to face up to them.

Get it done!

Any additional comments?

I have went thru many different books in this rough area in my time and I would sincerely put this up there with the best works by people like David Allen. It breaks down a quite complicated issue into easy to manage and easy to follow steps. Narration was great for this one, very engaging voice. I have already listened to this twice and feel like I will return to this many more times to remind myself of the key points.

Changed my life !!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time!?

I am a freelancer and the procrastination is a huge problem for me. I have so many ideas, but because I always leave them for tomorrow, most of them are not realized yet. And some of those ideas I have in my mind for years! In this audiobook everything is explained in a simple, yet very effective way. It motivated me and thanks to some of the tips and techniques from the book, now I am procrastinating much less, and I am more productive. A very good and useful book !!!

I highly recommend this Audiobook

I noticed that whenever I get a lot of work, I start to procrastinate because of all of the stress that comes along with it. It's so easy to stress out and think about all of the work that needs to get done. I decided to download this book in order to stop me from procrastinating on the things that I really need to get done. It's so easy to say that I will do it later and then nothing gets done. I loved the tips in this book. I loved the advice to take a break and clear my mind. This has really helped me to become more efficient and to get more done. I feel more motivated after reading this book and feel that I will be able to stop procrastinating and get my work done!

Get stuff done, quick, easy, get on with it!! 10/1

Any additional comments?

My first time ever listening to a book in this genre and I found it incredibly educational, yet still very enjoyable to listen to. Procrastination hits us all at times, to different degrees, and finding a solution is never easy. Nor is it going to be solved overnight. However this book has given me the tools and advice to make real positive steps towards getting more stuff done. And most importantly for me (as I have a young family), it gets done on time and with the minimal fuss. Really recommend this book to anyone who needs help dealign with all the little tasks and projects that work and personal life throw at us.

I was going to write this later ;-)

Would you listen to How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time! again? Why?

Yes, I would listen to the book again. it helps to go over the strategies that helped me reduce the way I procrastinate. Secondly, I like the anecdotal style of the narration. Lastly, the length of the book is ideal for a quick read during down time.

What did you learn from How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time! that you would use in your daily life?

I learnt the idea of to-do lists. By making simple daily routines at night, I am more organized in the morning and find that I have less of a hassle deciding exactly what I want to achieve daily. I also stopped overthinking lists which apparently is another form of procrastination! Who knew! I like the fact that it was a very practical book. It used real examples to pass the lessons across. For example, when the author talked about limited choices, he gave an example that was very easy to relate with. Procrastination sometimes is viewed as an issue that only affects work life but the example of not going out with friends because one could procrastinate when deciding who to see drove home the point to me. That was because it was something I did a lot without realizing I was procrastinating! Now when I go to a new restaurant and I find the menu imposing, I either ask the waiter to surprise me or I just pick something I want, say steak and limit my choice to a steak dish. It sounds very simple but you can’t imagine how much time I’m saving by making the simple decisions faster.

Any additional comments?

I would recommend this book to my friends, in fact I already have sent it to my neighbour who never gets anything done in time for our weekly book club. It’s a book that touches on the psychology behind procrastination. It lets the listeners understand the reasons why people push things further in time and sometimes end up not doing them. Most importantly, the book proffered diverse solutions that would help even the most unrepentant procrastinator reconsider his ways. There were so many tips and strategies for overcoming this bad habit that I found something that worked for me. Just like the book prescribed, I finally took a good long look at myself and understand why I usually put things off till later. It usually was because I assumed I had more time to do it later and then ended up doing other mundane things. Last minute rushing became the norm for me and this caused me to hand in hastily put together reports at work. If I wasn’t late to an event, I was just in the nick of time. By valuing my time more and prioritizing my tasks to the earlier part of the day which I decided was my most productive and active time of the day, I have been able to achieve more tasks than I used to in the past. I can say this book has improved my personal and work life.

helped me get ideas

Where does How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time! rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I liked the narrators voice and listening was great to be able to work on things while getting tips and ideas to stop procrastinating helped me a lot. I would rank this an 8/10 with other audio books. The tips were useful.

What does Christian Erickson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

calm soothing voice to listen to, not stumbling on words (how I do) just easier for a dyslexic like me to listen to things and understand everything and not have to stop and re read a section. I really enjoyed the narrators voice.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

sure I listened to it in one sitting while doing house chores. It's short and multitasking is my game. =)

An outstanding and brilliant guide to manage time

What did you love best about How to Stop Procrastination & Get More Done in Less Time!?

I just loved the narrator’s speech and listening to that voice was excellent to be able to work on things while getting tips and ideas to stop procrastination helped me a lot. I would recommend this audio book at 10/10 with other audio books. The tips and guidelines shared were very helpful. It’s one of the finest books ever I have ever purchased.
I must say, as an audio book it was very well performed, overall, just loved it very much and encountered new experiences from this incredibly amazing audio book

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I listened to this audio book many times. It's not something you can pay attention to in one setting because the writer gives you particular projects to achieve throughout your day. Such projects & tasks include creating lists, adhering to your objectives, creating particular long lasting and temporary goals, and etc. This is a book you want to consume gradually to help make sure you are acting upon each step and really understanding each topic (section).

Any additional comments?

The exquisite tips and advices i got for those two hours were very helpful, and its impact has been positively impacting my fight towards removing procrastination. Being in a college, managing my time and handling all the tasks is been quite a difficult thing to do. Due to part-time jobs, traveling for fun with friends, family and enjoying myself, I have been regularly procrastinating so many things in my life. Reading and doing tasks have been among the best victims of delaying. When seeking help, one of my buddies recommended this guide.
By listening to this amazing audio book, paying attention to the guide and applying the mentioned ideas, I have been able to reduce delay and avoid putting factors off by avoiding wasting time by eliminating delays and allocating less time to less important stuff and things. This guide is a must buy for anybody who is vulnerable to procrastination and will offer great help. Highly recommended!
