What If Procrastination Isn’t a Flaw but Your Secret Productivity Superpower?

Feel overwhelmed by productivity hacks that require color-coded planners, monk-like discipline, or pretending you don’t binge Netflix instead of tackling your to-do list?

Procrastination for Overachievers is here to help. This hilarious and practical guide embraces your procrastination quirks and teaches you how to work with them—not against them. Because sometimes, the best way to get things done is to lean into doing nothing… strategically.

Packed with humor, relatable tips, and easy-to-try strategies, this guide is perfect for anyone who’s juggling work, goals, and the occasional existential crisis. Whether you’re an over-planner, a master daydreamer, or a professional email sorter, this book will show you how to:

  • Turn procrastination into a secret weapon by embracing intentional pauses and distractions.
  • Trick yourself into starting tasks with tiny wins, fake deadlines, and the famous 10-Minute Rule.
  • Avoid burnout and perfectionism with breaks, flexible planning, and a “good enough” mindset.
  • Harness daydreaming for creative breakthroughs—even if you’re just thinking about sandwiches.
  • Celebrate progress (because finishing “most” of your to-do list is still a win).

Through laugh-out-loud humor and down-to-earth advice, Procrastination for Overachievers shows you how to use your procrastination habits to your advantage, avoid the guilt trap, and make productivity a lot less stressful—and a lot more fun.

So, if you’ve ever started a project by cleaning your desk, Googled “how to stop procrastinating” instead of working, or rewritten the same email five times, this book is for you. It’s not about fixing procrastination—it’s about mastering it.
