Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World by Bill Clinton. You can say what you want about Bill Clinton’s occasional lack of good judgment, but one thing you can’t deny is that the ex-President of the USA has led, and continues to lead, a purposeful life.

He has used his immense popularity around the world to rally people behind him to become agents of change. Read the full book review.

QUESTION: I’m wondering if you have a course dedicated to just procrastination? I know how to organize my time, but I can’t make myself do the tasks and I keep putting them off.
– Heather

ANSWER: Heather you are not alone. Everyone procrastinates to some degree. (I’m a behaviouralist by training and believe some styles procrastinate more than others) The four most common reasons are: (1) Poor work habits. (We are what we do) (2) Feeling overwhelmed (You have so much to do you don’t know where to start) (3) Trying to be perfect (Some people wait until they have the prefect plan – they are afraid of failing) and (4) You would rather do something else. (People have a tendency to put off the things they don’t like to do)

If I was coaching you I would start by having you complete a personal assessment. Once I determined your style – I would work with you to develop new habits to counteract your natural tendencies. (You must change the behaviour to change the result)
- Brian
