Goodreads review by Cassie on September 14, 2020

I listen to the audiobook, so I'm not sure if there's much difference. Between the not so subtle advertising, ego stroking, and religious overtones I found this book to be mostly a waste of my time.

Quotes

“Managing your time is a lot like managing your money. It’s not about the numbers; it’s about your behavior. The best time-management tricks in the world won’t do you much good if they don’t actually make your life better. In Procrastinate on Purpose, Rory builds on what we’ve all heard about time management and adds the two things that have always been missing: emotion and significance.”
Dave Ramsey, New York Times bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio show host

"A brilliant insight turned into an actionable method. Start now!"
—Seth Godin, author of Linchpin

"The thing I love about Rory Vaden’s books is that long before he writes about principles, he lives them. If you've ever thought, ‘I wish I had more time,’ read the great principles in this book. And then I dare you to do what Rory does: live them."
—Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author of Start and Quitter

"We all wish we had more time. It turns out we have plenty to spare. In Procrastinate on Purpose, Rory Vaden shows us how to take our time back and sets us free from the shackles of tired time management techniques."
