Resonates strongly, recommend.
I feel compelled to respond to a couple other reviews I saw.
one mentioned "gasping for air", yeah I suppose I noticed the pacing sometimes felt maybe a bit unnatural, but it's hardly a big deal.
next, someone said something along the lines of "typical, nothing much new" which just puzzles me. I guess they must have a hobby of listening to books on procrastination?
I thought his book was really great and I'd strongly recommend it to anyone struggling with procrastination. I found his descriptions of the struggle to be very accurate, I found his client stories interesting and encouraging, I found his examples and metaphors resonated, and the concepts and strategies seem helpful and realistic and accessible and immediately actionable.
I found the overall tone of the content to be very compassionate and understanding of the challenge.
the only thing I would wish to change would be to add some form of progressive summarization, like maybe section recaps, chapter summaries, and then maybe some really concise summary action plans at the end to tackle different specific struggles, because he does a good job of covering various possible sources/variations of procrastination.
TLDR: recommended.

Constantly gasping for breath
I couldn't help but get annoyed at the narrator gasping for air before he started his next sentence. He should fix this.

Decent but nothing new
Decent book on self development and avoiding procrastination. I liked the examples but most of the lessons are typical of this genre. I’d say nothing new here but still worth a listen if you can get it for a deal (I got this through an audible sale).
