This listen eloquently presents the basics of meditation, followed by a basic meditation, and final recommendations. Excellent 10 minute investment.

This reluctant doer found "Life Admin" fascinating

Revisado: 02-15-20

A super doer (someone who has no trouble getting things done, and done well) may read this book and find simply validation, or he/she may feel it's a waste of time to read it at all. For everyone else, Emens provides a thorough analysis of how life admin affects and often overwhelms most of us (some more than others). I can see why some reviewers would find such a "scholarly" approach unnecessary and prefer a list of tips and tricks. In her defense, Emens does provide many useful suggestions and examples throughout the book, and there are several lists of strategies and things to try at the end of the book. However, I found her in-depth analysis helped me gain a deeper understanding of my particular mindset, and what strategies I may benefit from the most (for example, borrowing strategies from other admin personalities, or reflecting on the goal/value/purpose/opportunity of the admin task at hand to lessen the mental burden). Emens tone is authoritative yet humorous, making this read both insightful and light. I highly recommend it. In the end, however, one has to do the work, perhaps starting with small, manageable, and sustainable changes to get on the road to precrastination/procrastination recovery.
