During a particularly low point he recalled a friend's advice and started keeping a feeling's diary. As time passed, he saw a connection between the tasks that he avoided facing and his poor feelings and low self-esteem. Armed with this insight, David taught himself to face his tasks and the overwhelming feelings they brought by learning to focus on Just One Task, which he incorporated into "The J.O.T. Method™." David Parker has lived in London, San Francisco, and Brooklyn, New York.This book was previously published as: How Many Procrastinators Does It Take to Change a Light Bulb: Take Control of Your Life and Defeat Immobilizing Depression!

Its new title, The More You Do The Better You Feel: How to Overcome Procrastination and Live a Happier Life, better reflects its serious nature.

I've not yet finished this book; in fact, I'm only half-way through but I cannot wait any longer to tell everyone who struggles with habitual procrastination, buy this book!!!!!Recently, I've focused my reading on habits and procrastination. Somehow in this process, I came across this book, The More You Do, The Better You Feel by David Parker. And I can't put into words the laser-like accuracy of this description of my life. I feel naked and exposed while reading this. How can this person who's never met me, articulate the inner battle that's dominated and consumed my entire life with such precision and detail? He doesn't just know what I do (or don't do), but how I think and how I respond--things I've never told anyone, not my mom, not my husband of 20 years. But here it is, written for all the world to see.I don't want to quote too much and violate copyright laws--lol--but here are a few snippets that hit me right between the eyes. See if you can also identify with these descriptions:"As an adult procrastinator, I often felt like a child lost in a sea of adults. Similar to when I was a five-year-old in Macy's department store and strayed too far from my mother and felt bewildered by the seemingly mountainous range of countertops and endless shopping aisles: 'Mommy! Mommy!' I cried out in fear of abandonment. Adult procrastinators act in a somewhat similar fashion, but instead of crying out, we cry inwards by internalizing our feelings of inadequacy and bewilderment through a continuous stream of negative self-talk and self-admonishment.""Just as a smoker may require a cigarette after undergoing stress, when a procrastinator feels stress, he tends to shut down; however, this itself is procrastination, which leads to even greater levels of stress.""When procrastinators feel overwhelmed, they tend to go into self-protection mode, shutting down like overloaded circuit breakers do. Over time, a person who possesses poor coping skills may adopt procrastination as his default method of stress reduction. Procrastination can become habitual when a person's initial response to a task is to shy away from it because he feels overcome or flooded by anxiety. This automatic response may provide temporary relief from anxiety; however, the more he avoids uncomfortable situations, the more uncomfortable he then becomes with anxiety. As a result, not 'do'-ing becomes an automatic response to anything that causes distress. Instead of will power, 'won't power' becomes the rule.""Procrastination can become a habit that can eventually grow to the point where the procrastinator sees himself as less than an adult, while at the same time, his tasks seem almost to overshadow him, as though they've become larger than life.""When a habitual procrastinator puts off a task, it's often because he has told himself 'I can't do it,' and the more he thinks that, the more he believes it.""Almost all habitual procrastinators occasionally surprise themselves by acting on a task....Moments before taking action, a habitual procrastinator's attitude is quite similar to an Army battalion taking a hill in a 'now or never,' 'do--or die!' effort. Once they've begun, many procrastinators are so determined to plow through and finish their task, they may rebuff the attempts of others to change from what they're engaged in..""At any particular time, the average habitual procrastinator has already put off many different tasks that cover a wide spectrum of his needs. Each of these tasks has its own particular life span and because the habitual procrastinator only tends to deal with his tasks when he's forced to by external demands, like deadlines, he acts on a crisis-by-crisis basis, which is an emotionally exhausting way of going about things. Given the fight he's had against taking action, after dealing with a task, he needs a break, which only continues his procrastination. In essence, although he has just put out one fire, the rest of his house continues to smolder; so his break only lasts until the smoke from another fire alerts him of his need to take action once more."Over and over again, it was like reading a personalized psychoanalysis report of my life...As though a journalist was following me and documenting my life and then a psychiatrist analyzed it. The author theorizes that procrastination isn't just a by-product of depression, rather it can be a root cause of depression. I have to say, looking back on my life, I absolutely concur with this assessment. When you consistently avoid unpleasant tasks out of fear that you're incapable and won't measure up, the tasks themselves pile up exponentially as does the mental weight of the "evidence" of your inadequacies and inferiority to everyone else (the functioning adults) further paralyzing your efforts which is a perfect recipe for depression.Anyway, I was so moved by this first portion of the book that I contacted the author (a first for me, an avid reader). He's very friendly and is planning a FB group for people based on this book soon. If you're like us, you may want to seek it out and join. I know I will! :)
