My friend and colleague Kerul Kassel is excited, and for good reason: she just received the first shipment of her new book Stop Procrastinating Now. And by coincidence, this happens to be National Procrastination Week. Talk about timing...Kerul's a pretty organized person but that's uncanny!

Kerul's book teaches a system for ending procrastination, and some of the elements might surprise you. Among other things, she covers:

- Why you need to drop your goals to get lots more of the right things done.

- The "secret pain" of people who do things immediately - and why you as a procrastinator are better off and much closer to getting things done than you think (what a refreshing thought).

- The difference between "want to" and "have to" projects - and how to focus on the right type.

And just to show that procrastination definitely has its funny side, Kerul provides these quotes:
