Summary of Doing It Now (Edwin C. Bliss)
INTRODUCTION
Main Idea
Procrastination can be a major stumbling block.
The average person accepts procrastination as a part of human nature and leaves it at that. Successful people and high achievers realize that procrastination prevents success, and develop viable and systematic techniques for overcoming procrastination.
Conquering procrastination is based on the concept that life is a process rather than a situation, and that every person has the innate ability to shape their own destiny and build their own future in a proactive rather than a reactive manner.
Supporting Ideas
Take a piece of paper and make four written lists:
List all tasks, large and small, that you have been putting off doing at work. Write down every single thing that you have planned to get around to at some stage but haven’t yet found the time.Next, make another list of all the small jobs you have been meaning to do around your house or property. You might even compile this list while you walk around the house so it will jog your memory.Now put together a list of everything you have been meaning to do on a personal level. Are there personal relationships you have been meaning to dedicate more time and effort to? Are there family events you’d like to organize when you get around to. Are there letters to write or family members to contact again?Finally, put together a list of everything you’ve been meaning to do for yourself someday. Are there any educational courses you’d like to take, vacation sights or foreign lands to see, major events to experience or things you’d like to learn? Write them all down on this list.Keep these four lists close at hand and look at them carefully as you consider the 12 steps which follow. Relate these principles to your actual situation, not to a hypothetical or theoretical scenario.
Don’t let procrastination prevent you from achieving everything you’d like to achieve.
Key Thoughts
“Some men die by shrapnel
And some go down in flames,
But most men perish inch by inch
In play at little games.”
– Robert Abrahams
Step 1: Attitude adjustment
Main Idea
The fact that procrastination is widespread should not be interpreted as a reason to accept it without argument.
