![]() Rating: - Neil is Brilliant!I don't know that you can ever say that any method, however brilliant, is for everyone, but if nothing else has worked for getting you to stop procrastinating, you'd be silly not to get this book. More specifically, the "un-schedule" is a counter-intuitive approach for enlisting help from the part of yourself you've been fightinmg with for too long now. Imagine feeling compelled to do the things that are truly important, instead of being pulled towards the distracting behaviors of old. ...

I am currently a procrastinating Ph.D. student at Berkeley. Not surprisingly, his advice is spot on for me. I wrote the following review for my blog: [...] I am currently reading - not Sartre, not Foucault - but Fiore. Who is Neil Fiore, Ph.D.?

It did help me the first week I read it, but the influence fade away over time. It is a book and it takes serious effort to "do it now" on your part. I try to resume the now habit this week and will continue reminding myself of doing it. Rating: - Golden BookThis book nails it all. I was a bit scared with some of the reviews before buying. But thank goodness I brought. This book is far more worth then its price. This book have the content to change your life for betterment for ever. Thanks Neil for writing such a wonderful book. It really changed my attitude towards any work.
