Summary
John Perry’s insights and laugh-out-loud humor bring to mind Thurber, Wodehouse, and Harry Frankfurt’s On Bullshit. This charming and accessible audio educates, entertains, and illuminates a universal subject. Procrastinators will be relieved to learn that you can actually accomplish quite a lot while procrastinating. In fact, the book itself is the result of Perry avoiding grading papers, refereeing academic proposals, and reviewing dissertation drafts. It also has a practical side, offering up advice that listeners can put to use. Who knew that placing "Learn Chinese" at the top of your to-do list would inspire you to get the less monumental tasks below it done?
Witty, wise, and beautifully written, The Art of Procrastination will make the perfect gift for the untold number of lollygaggers out there.

The only book to complete for 10 years
After almost accomplishing 2 degrees and unimaginable level of career achievement but this is the first book I completed in 10 years! I guess this proves how procrastinating I am, I have a deadline of one week to submit my MSc dissertation draft......

An article about acceptance could do
Witty author but little to no substance in this read. It’s just about accepting yourself as a structural procrastinator with one or two actionable tips boobytrapping your environment.
