This was an interesting read about the science of procrastination. While it seems like just the default state of things, it's interesting to learn that our tendency to procrastinate is actually a response of the brain's hard wiring - how we delegate a flight or fight response in the moment - assigned a new project at the office, or another chapter to read at school. Our own anxiety is often what makes us hesitate towards meeting our goals, and this book is an informative guide to helping you make progress by breaking the goals down. The only real issue here is it sometimes felt a bit overly technical, and could have placed more emphasis on time management skills, but that would inevitably make the book longer and this is more written for people in a hurry. Either way - worth a read.
