If I may barge in, my favourite book against procrastination is The Now Habit by Neil Fiore. He’s also produced some powerful audio programs.
I would also suggest that you take a look at the Zen Habits blog at http://zenhabits.net

Neil’s book is THE book on procrastination and how to deal with it :-)

I agree about The Now Habit. I believe a revised version of that book just came out a couple months ago. There’s also a good book by Burka and Yuen. For more serious problems, look into anything C.R. Snyder has written on approach/avoidance-based psychological coping or see Kantor’s book on pathological avoidance. Fiore and Burka/Yuen are basically this branch of psychology in “light” form.

And while we’re at it: IMHO, the best book on writer’s block is “On Writer’s Block” by Victoria Nelson (published in 1993). It is a revised and greatly overhauled version of her 1985 book “Writer’s Block and How to Use It”.

Thank you for the reading suggestions. I apologize for “hijacking” this thread.
