Great book with a lot of motivating tips to stop putting off what needs to be done.

When my colleague recommeneded this book to me the other day, I was not so sure from the title of the book. My life had been very very stressful since sometime having to juggle the economic crisis and my personal issues. With uncertainty about the future, I just wanted to try it out. The moment I bought it ok, this is much smaller than 7habits and others, is it worth it. But it is... It refers to stop procrastinating your daily workload and deciding which is the thing which you have been putting off since a long time but you should be doing, be it your personal habit like smoking or maybe that hobby you wanted to pursue but somehow always got stressed out. I read one chapter a day, and tried very hard to implement each suggestion to its fullest and then went on to another chapter. This book is a must reread too everytime and if you follow it you will feel your life is getting more disciplined and focused.

I recommend it highly.

Amazing book! I was the WORST procrastinator in high school and college, but now that I'm out doing my own thing, I know the importance of biting the bullet, making those calls you need to make, writing those letters you need to write, because in the end it helps you. Its a really bizarre situation where people know what they need to do, they even know that live will be better when they the task is over with and they don't have to worry about it, but for some reason its more comfortable to sit back, and do anything else but the task at hand. My favorite tip was the "do the opposite" trick. Basically do the opposite of what you're supposed to do and see what that gets you. Usually so far behind that you have to rush to finish the project or task! Worked for me, I don't procrastinate...as much.

In my twenties I could have taught classes on procrastination, but I never got around to it! Luckily I found ‘Eat That Frog’ and my procrastinating days are gone for good. In ‘Eat that Frog!’, Brian Tracy comes up with 21 ways people procrastinate, and how to conquer this. The first step is determining what your frog is (area that needs help) and then how to eat it (beat that area in need of help). The book comes off as well-researched and is a very easy read – very important with this sort of thing.

I had a bad case of following the philosophy ‘don’t do today what you can put off until tomorrow’. This had a negative effect on all aspects of my life, from family to work. It was always easy to put stuff off. Mr. Tracy’s book showed me that I could be much more fulfilled if I did grab the bull by the horns.

Brian Tracy is a great author - one of the great self-help authors out there. His work is easy to read and enjoy. EAT THAT FROG! is no different.

The title of this book (along with the author) first caught my attention when I saw it on the shelves. I immediately wondered what the heck the frog was about, and I just had to find out. I bought the book and am delighted that I did. (I'll let future readers learn about the frog themselves when they read the book).

This book really does work if you take the time to follow its instructions and give it a chance. Though it may not permanently solve your procrastination problems, it will definitely help you get past the worst stages and start moving. It's up to you - Tracy is just there to give you a push.
