EFT for Procrastination

I have enjoyed this book. I learned a lot about myself as a procrastinator. I always thought procrastination was a bad habit I developed in my life. But after reading this book, I learned that the roots of procrastination go deeper than a bad habit. I have been tapping to release myself from the deep roots that created procrastination. It's been a very useful book. I highly recommend it to all procrastinators out there. Don't procrastinate reading it.

Wisdom from the bottom of the well and beyond...

I read everything Gloria Arenson writes. In addition to being a world-class therapist with a lifetime of experience to share, she is one of the true masters of Emotional Freedom Technique and one of my few go-to experts whose knowledge on the subject is consistently superior. I love this book for how compact it is, fititng neatly into purse or backpack, and how well Arenson both tells the story of the many different forms of procrastination (oh yes, you'll see yourself in one or many of them) but also finds gems hidden in the refuse of lives put on hold by this disorder. There is so much hope, and so many excellent tips here, I don't know where to start. I love how Arenson gently and scientifically lifts the burden of shaming and blaming off the habitual procrastinator's shoulders with education in brain biology (Chapter 7: "It's Your Brain's Fault"). This is paramount learning in comprehending the underpinnings of one's own procrastination. These are lessons none of us learnt in school, yet are oh-so important. And too, are the excellent pigeonholes and tips Arenson gives in the form of her techniques: "Pork Barrelling", "The Weighting Game" (which in addition, is another great Arenson title to explore), "Dare Yourself To Fail" and her simple yet elegant daily check-in, "The Three-Step Daily Workout". Takes minutes, once you're in the swing of how to do EFT. The fundamental stream running through the heart and soul of this excellent book is the great love Arenson has for procrastinators (she lists herself among those so afflicted as do I) and how this is elegantly and with great expertise transferred to the reader in the form of exercises designed to gently bring awareness and solutions to the problem. Bottom line: you need this book. If you put off anything, any time, ever, you need this book. If you haven't gone to the doctor, had the important-yet-frightening conversation or have rooms you can't go in for the mess. YOU NEED THIS BOOK. As Director of the Energy Coach Institute, it has been my pleasure over many years to have Gloria Arenson lecture to my students and to enthusiastically recommend her many works. This is yet another worthy title to add to that list, and to make sure finds its way into the hands of my family and friends. Another job, book, crusade and solution very well done. Highest recommendation.

Sensible and Effective

This book is not like all the others that tell you to use your time better or organize your papers. The author realizes that procrastinators are plagued with fear that is so paralyzing that they would rather face negative consequences than be wrong, imperfect or look silly. The book is filled with interesting stories about hard core procrastinators who benefitted from Arenson's counseling. EFT is a powerful took for getting rid of the underlying fears and eliminating self defeating beliefs without struggle. Read her book Five Simple Steps to Emotional Healing to learn the find points of EFT tapping.

Don't Procrastinate Get This Book

Reviewed by Irene Watson for Reader Views (6/09) As a former EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) practitioner I was elated to see Gloria Arenson's new approach for dealing with procrastination. In some cases we know procrastination is good and sometimes saves us time and useless effort; however, in most cases it is a compulsion and a cover up for fear. Arenson explains "The real question is not `Why am I putting this off?' It is `Why do I need to keep myself from going ahead with this?'" She further claims negative self-talk is what you don't want to face. Arenson also informs us that procrastinators have high expectations of themselves which results in perfectionism. Perfectionists have a hard time making decisions, thus becoming procrastinators. Seems like a vicious circle. Checking on the internet I found that some researchers indicate 95% of the people are procrastinators and 20% are chronic procrastinators. Procrastination could be an epidemic. "EFT for Procrastination" is a book filled with revolutionary techniques to recognize the procrastination within oneself, address the issue, and resolve it through a six-step program. The simple program delves into the subconscious and changes the patterns; it is painless, easy to do, and has phenomenal results. According to Arenson, using EFT for 2 minutes per day will prevent you procrastinating. How simple is that! In addition, the author provides real-life cases that we can easily relate to. Concise and written in lay-terms, "EFT for Procrastination" by Gloria Arenson is a necessary tool for anyone that is not able to get things done in a timely fashion. In itself EFT is a valuable tool for any changes one wants to make in their lives, and using EFT for procrastination is doubly important. This compulsive behavior is ready to be stopped.

Don't put off buying this book!

Most people joke about being procrastinators, but we all know that they don't do anything about it. This is a great book with a program to help them. It is easy reading but gets to the heart of the problem. I am so glad I got this book!
