Finish What You Start The Art of Following Through Taking Action Executing SelfDiscipline Audible Audio Edition Peter Hollins Gregory Sutton Books Reviews

• This book has some great suggestions on how to finish what you start. I like how Peter Hollins describes the problem of procrastination. He then gives you suggested ways of getting around it. I have applied most of the principals. This has caused my output to be much more productive then it used to be. I feel like I am getting something done. In addition, the suggestions have caused me to keep a log of my progress which has been steady in a positive direction. I would highly recommend the book to those seeking to improve their productivity.
• I finished this book - due to this book - and I am glad I started it. I only read non-fiction and read a lot of it - this is by far one of my favorite books. The principles are great - I am a consultant and can relate to every section of this book. I love the summaries of the chapters and then the summary of the whole book. There are a lot of very good, useful, and simple ideas that you can apply immediately. If you work a lot of projects simultaneously - this is a great purchase. KUDOS!!!
• Good read. The Author repeats the teachings several times to ensure that you remember each lesson. This book speaks to our fear of failure and the unknown.
• I've always had a problem doing the simplest tasks, often waiting hours to fold my laundry or clean my bed. However, already after just reading the first three chapters am I able to see myself in Hollins's writing. One thing I really liked was limiting yourself to three major tasks a day. as in his Manifesto chapter he describes being overwhelmed with your responsibilities for the day, and we often give ourselves too little or too much time to complete the tasks required.
  
  If you have a problem finishing what you start, take the first step by finishing this book.
• This book helped me understand myself and why things were not getting finished. Quick easy read packed with good insight.
• Clear and immediately actionable advice. Hollins is a star. If you read one book to help motivate you to reach your goals, and I have read many (many, many, MANY), this is the book I recommend. Would also make a great gift for graduates. Thank you, Peter Hollins.
• First, kudos on the format of each chapter; I found it easier to remember what I had read by simply reading the chapter completely. Each topic is introduced, then expanded, and finally Mr. Collins provides his readers with a list of important notions in each chapter - one bullet at a time; I really liked this since I got into the habit of reading chapters during different times of the day and then around bedtime I would read the bullet section as a quick reminder of what I should have learned.
  
  I would recommend to the author that he should add a small section after his explanation of taking the necessary time to recuperate mentally to explain the difference between such activities and procrastination. As he mentions procrastination is never completely eliminated, I think that it's important to not let something like meditation become something used to procrastinate. For instance, I like to take little breaks to watch an episode from an old TV show like Seinfeld, because I find that the distraction and the no pressure activity helps me find solutions to problems rather than worrying about them to no end; however, sometimes I just continue watching three or four episodes when it was actually time to move on to something else. I'm working on it!
  
  Thank you for writing this book! Cheers!
• The part I liked the most was Hollins’ emphasis on action and how to avoid deadly pitfalls like unrealistic expectations of yourself and others.
