What you will be able to do
- Understand what you're running away from when you put a task off.
- Start with a first step small enough to stop resisting you.
- Build a habit, its cue, its routine, its reward, and surroundings that favour it.
- Hold on without waiting to feel like it, thanks to “if… then…” plans and a minimum version.
- Bounce back after a slip, and hold yourself to account without waiting to be checked.
Who it is for
For anyone who often works with nobody checking: a day at home, a course to follow in the evening, a file with no deadline in sight. The method works whatever your job: at a front desk, in a workshop, at a patient's bedside, behind a screen, on a building site or at the head of a team. The module follows six weeks of working from home and evening classes at an insurance company, but the exercises and the exam put you in many other situations.
