Today I start a series of blog posts featuring videos on YouTube, where I read from one of my motivational books for one minute.
Here is the video where I read from the 5 Minute Perseverance Game: Play Daily for a Month and Become the Ultimate Procrastination Breaker.
The extract I am reading is from the chapter “About the Game.”
Here it is if you want to read along, prior, or afterward.

Excerpt from the chapter “About the Game”
Procrastination means putting off something which needs doing, whereas perseverance is to keep on doing the task whatever it takes.
So procrastination is bad and perseverance is good. Do you agree?
You do? Have you ever tried questioning this statement?
Quite a few people on the Internet do question the supposedly negative side of procrastination by organizing pro-procrastinating fan groups. They rebel and fight the procrastination fighters.
And what do the others, the pro-perseverance say? Many say you need to work hard to achieve something. They search for those inspiring figures throughout history and the present, who achieved amazing heights in various areas, in spite of challenges they might have faced or still face.
You want the same, badly. You want to achieve something, you have a dream. But on the other hand, you like what procrastinators and writers of “Be lazy at work” books say. You want fun, not hard work.
