The gist: the author read ‘The Procrastination Equation' and was inspired to use the techniques there to supercharge their motivation (going beyond merely defeating procrastination, to being enthusiastic about their goals).

Generally solid short book, and most of the advice given send reasonable. The one major exception is the implication that people should be purposefully over-optimistic in their projections, so that they get started. I would rather know what I'm getting myself into and make the conscious choice not to pursue a goal, rather than committing to things that I'm not prepared to do.
