Moving Past Procrastination to a Great Marriage: Encourage Your Spouse Kindle Edition

4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

Everyone procrastinates. And procrastination doesn't just show up in our work life - it's thriving in relationships also. Our marriage relationships are filled with the poison of procrastination. What happens? Procrastination becomes a real barrier to a life filled with meaning. It also shows up - over time - as a poison that kills our marriages.


There are 9 reasons we all procrastinate:

  • - we fear failure - or success,

  • - we don't know where to start or how to finish,

  • - we're bored,

  • - we're striving for perfect,

  • - we're saving our energy for something else (otherwise known as laziness),

  • - we're too tired,

  • - we're rebelling,

  • - we don't have the motivation to keep going,

  • - and we're distracted by a million other things.


In this book, the nine reasons we all procrastinate are spelled out in detail as they appear in marriage, and solutions, and strategies are suggested for each area.


Also included are links to free downloads of the lists: 101 things to say and text to your spouse, 101 things to do for/with your spouse, 35 conversation starters and more.


Reading this book will give you the big picture surrounding procrastination in all its forms, and the practical strategies to move past procrastination! The goal is translating what you learn about procrastination in your marriage, to the rest of your life - so as husband and wife you're leading a meaningful life!


Lori Ferguson, the author, has been writing about encouragement in marriage for more than 8 years at EncourageYourSpouse.com. She's invested in helping husbands and wives encourage each other to live with purpose: to be a team, to make a difference in each other's lives, in the lives of their children, loved ones, communities and countries. Procrastination is a huge barrier to this purpose for husbands and wives, so that's why she's written this book. And she's not just the writer... she's a procrastinator herself, so she knows the pain and consequences. (Fortunately she was able to finish this book - and conquer one project, to the delight of her husband and adult kids!)

Lori Ferguson writes about optimism, thankfulness, encouragement, marriage, leadership, and faith. She's a wife to Robert for 37 years (and counting), a mom to grown kids, and a gram to two.

When they’re not hanging out with their grands and grown kids in North Carolina, Robert and Lori are traveling around North America. For five years they traveled with their F150 pickup while living in 282 square feet in their fifth-wheel. It was all part of an adventure they wanted to take since before they were married. These days you'll find them still traveling in their pickup, but their home base is off wheels. ;-)

You can find Lori online at http://PositiveThanksLiving.com - and on Instagram and YouTube with the same name! Be thankful and Kind - happy 2022!

    Lori writes honestly and straightforward. You can't misunderstand what she's trying to convey in her book "Moving Past Procrastination". She explains what inspired the her to write the book and with a bit of humor admits she and her family are known to run late and procrastinate. She gives great examples on how to tackle procrastination and wonderful reasons to get the job done efficiently. She offers files for download that can be used to overcome procrastination and improve relationships, marriages, and more. It is an easy read with many "aha" moments and I promise you will not regret getting this book. I am convinced once you bought and read it, you will buy it again and give it away as a present to all those who have trouble getting the job done on time for one reason or another.
