Introduction: The Pervasive Problem of Procrastination

Procrastination. We've all been there. That nagging task you keep pushing off, the important project that never seems to get started, the goals that remain perpetually out of reach. As a researcher who has spent over a decade studying the science of motivation and procrastination, I've seen firsthand just how widespread and damaging this habit can be. Did you know that over 95% of people admit to procrastinating at least occasionally? Or that the average person procrastinates for about 2 hours out of every 8-hour workday? The costs are staggering - procrastination leads to increased stress, poorer health outcomes, financial troubles, and billions in lost productivity each year. But here's the good news: procrastination is not an immutable character flaw. It's a habit that can be understood and overcome. In this book, I'll share the insights from my research and introduce you to a powerful tool - the Procrastination Equation - that can help you finally stop putting things off and start getting stuff done.
