This book offers an explanation of procrastination in the context of ADHD. Procrastination happens when we know we should do something for our benefit but actively avoid or delay doing it. At that moment, the focus is on not doing something rather than figuring out what is getting in the way. It is frustrating and risky, and it has the potential to impact our lives. It can result in failed studies, lost jobs, broken relationships, missed opportunities, and a belief in inevitable failure.

By creating a model for what happens when we act to support our intentions, we are able to decode and address procrastination—and, even better, to understand how to avoid it. We call this model the CIMAA Code. CIMAA is an acronym for the five stages of task achievement in our model: connect, imagine, motivate, act, and achieve.
