Procrastination means putting off a difficult, delayable, important
task in favor of something easier, quicker, and less
anxiety-provoking. It also means delaying vital actions until the
performance and result are less than they would have been if done
in a timely manner. Similarly, blocking means that we stumble,
delay, and panic in response to a demanding responsibility.
Blocking typically occurs when we face public scrutiny (as in
writing). In this revisionist and sometimes irreverent book, the
author takes academic and professional psychologists to task for
neglecting a pair of related problems that are often derided but
that can be profoundly debilitating for individuals and
economically devastating for schools, businesses, and communities.
