Procrastination: It's About Time
by Andrea Perry
Publication details forthcomingDo you procrastinate? Find yourself putting things off until tomorrow - later - this year, next year, sometime, never? Procrastination stops you getting on with your life whole-heartedly. At best, a frustrating habit; at worst, it can ruin dreams, cause stress, back ache, anxiety and obsessive thinking, sexual difficulties and problems with relationships. It consumes energy, imagination and time - and can ultimately deplete your life of colour and meaning. And if you live with someone who procrastinates, it can drive you up the wall!
Andrea Perry is an experienced therapist who recognises that if people could “just do it”, with or without fear, they would. She describes how we need to develop trust in our abilities to follow our own logic into satisfying action, and how procrastination is a strategy to compensate for significant gaps in this process. She shows you how to identify how you block your natural tendency to be effective and creative, and how to build on your strengths and give your tendency to procrastinate something better to do. Accessible and practical, illustrated with humorous and pertinent cartoons, Procrastination: It’s About Time provides a rich variety of ideas which help you overcome delay and accomplish what you need and want to do - today, not tomorrow.
Andrea Perry is a psychotherapist and dramatherapist. She has worked with people with mental health problems, run a private therapy practice and taught counselling.
