He works hard at writing zingers that make you think about what you are doing or not doing - how you might be sabotaging yourself. His latest article is about ending procrastination and it’s got a few zingers to look for. Just take this example he gives explaining how people justify procrastination: “Do you see what’s going on here? A fault is being turned into a virtue.” Ha ha…get’s under your skin a bit doesn’t it?
