Practical useful and completely readable Bill Knaus has produced an idea and - photo 1

Practical, useful, and completely readable. Bill Knaus has produced an idea and a workbook that should be bought by every parent who had a child like me. If I had this book fifty years ago, many arguments with my parents and teachers could have been avoided. My problem was that I had no idea about how to tackle homework and projects, because they always seemed huge and daunting. Learning how to break big assignments into manageable parts and to set tangible goals would have done wonders for me. It took me decades to learn what Knaus can teach in minutes. Buy this book.

Derek Paar,PhD, professor in the department of psychology at Springfield College, MA

Bill Knaus has created a very useful guide for students of any age who have struggled with procrastination, and want to be college and/or career ready. Looking back on my experience as a high school teacher, high school principal, and school district superintendent, it was rare for me to see students that did not toil, in one way or another, with procrastination. I can see that this book would have been a tremendous help for any student who has left the dreaded book report for the last day (probably night) of Christmas vacation. If this sounds like you, this book is for you.

Keith R. Burke, former school administrator, and consultant to the New Hampshire Department of Education and other school districts throughout New England

OvercomingProcrastinationforTeens shows how to build powerful mental skills and use self-organizing tools to succeed in college preparation classes, and later in college. Along with engaging examples of teens meeting tough challenges, each new chapter builds on the one that came before it to create a pyramid of knowledge for success. I strongly recommend it.

Susan Tapper, EdD, professor emeritus in health education at San Francisco State University, and instructor for the University of San Diego Extension Program for Teacher Education Credentialing

In this engaging and highly accessible book, psychologist Bill Knaus masterfully lays out useful strategies for overcoming procrastination habits that often lead students to underperform and suffer needless stress. Using metaphors such as the Frog, and the SpiritofReason, he artfully drives home valuable life lessons, and then provides numerous skill-building exercises for internalizing rational anti-procrastination thinking and acting. This is the only book of its kind. All studentsfrom high school through graduate schoolshould place a copy in their backpacks and read it!

Elliot D. Cohen, PhD, professor and chair in the department of humanities at Indian River State College, FL

Hats off to Bill Knaus. OvercomingProcrastinationforTeens is a veritable feasta smorgasbord of practical, usable, and effective cognitive and behavioral strategies for the high schooler, the college student, and anyone, for that matter who wishes to eliminate procrastination and make their goals a reality. It feeds the needs of the student, his or her parent, and those practitioners, like myself, who are called upon to help those already starved for success because of procrastination. Bon Appetit!

Russell Grieger, PhD, is a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice, an organizational consultant, and adjunct professor at the University of Virginia

The most frustrating, hair-pulling moments for parents occur when their teenager avoids, delays, or stubbornly resists doing their homework or other responsibilities. In this brilliantly conceived book, Bill Knaus throws a lifeline to both parents and teens by explaining what psychological processes are operating behind the procrastination and indecision, and then provides dozens of straightforward tips and techniques to overcome this problem. This groundbreaking book should be on every familys bookshelf!

Barry Lubetkin, PhD, ABPP, director and founder of the Institute for Behavior Therapy in New York City, NY

Written in an easy-to-understand, conversational style, OvercomingProcrastinationforTeens provides wise ideas for teens (and their parents) on defeating procrastination. The reader will find engaging examples, where teens learn from teens, and where metaphors and stories make key ideas memorable. Teens who try just a few of these methods, and give themselves half a chance, are likely to gain a lot.

William L. Golden, PhD, licensed psychologist with a private practice in New York City and Briarcliff Manor, NY; author of several books; and faculty member at Cornell Medical College

Bill Knaus narrative style not only presents essential information in a highly reader-friendly way, but will also help readers retain the important aspects of the material. Whats more, his emphasis on encouraging active participation with a variety of concrete and clearly illustrated tasks will almost certainly engage and reward the reader. Simply put, a must-read (and do) for any college-bound student grappling with the challenges of procrastination. Indeed, I plan to use it in my practice with many adults in addition to my adolescent clients, college-bound or not!

Clifford N. Lazarus, PhD, licensed psychologist, and cofounder and director at the Lazarus Institute for Multimodal CBT

Dear college-bound teendont leave your future to chance. Prepare now for the challenging road ahead. Learn to reduce procrastination and optimize your successes with Bill Knaus gift for boosting your effectiveness. When you get to college, youll be glad you did.

Deborah Steinberg, MSW, psychotherapist, former supervisor and board member at the Albert Ellis Institute, mindfulness facilitator, and coauthor of HowtoSticktoaDiet

Bill Knaus has worked his way into the world of procrastinator thinking, and nailed the solutions to the putting it off mentality. His solution takes the young (and not so young) procrastinator by the hand and provides the tools to getting it done!

Joel Block, PhD, ABPP, diplomate of the American Board of Professional Psychology, and assistant clinical professor of psychology and psychiatry at Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine

In OvercomingProcrastinationforTeens, Bill Knaus shows young people how to overcome a great barrier to using their talents effectivelythemselves! I strongly recommend this research-grounded book not only to teen readers, but also to their parents and to the counselors who work with teens who struggle with procrastination.

Mike Abrams, PhD, MBA, ABPP, licensed psychologist, New York University faculty member, psychotherapist supervisor at the Albert Ellis Institute, and author and coauthor of four books

In spite of our best intentions, we often do exactly the wrong thing at the expense of our future selves. Teenagers especially can benefit by learning to hack their tendencies towards inaction and distraction by understanding and applying Bill Knaus lucid and practical approach.

Nando Pelusi, PhD, clinical psychologist, founding member of Applied Evolutionary Psychology Society, and contributing editor for PsychologyToday

Procrastination can profoundly affect a teens life by contributing to poor grades, high dropout rates, and delayed graduation from college. Bill Knaus, the leading authority on the subject of procrastination, advances our understanding of how and why we often dont do whats best for ourselves, and how to change for the better. Each chapter overflows with useful examples and practical suggestions for overcoming this vexing problem. Knaus step-by-step prescriptions will greatly benefit any teen hoping to increase success in or out of school.
