Feeling stuck, distracted, or constantly saying "I'll do it later"?

You're not lazy, your brain just needs a new plan.

Get Unstuck: A Teen's Guide to Beating Procrastination helps you understand why you delay, how motivation really works, and what to do when willpower isn't enough.

Written by Ya Ker Pa, Accredited Social Worker (AASW, MSW) and youth mental-health practitioner based in Melbourne, this book blends science, empathy, and real-world strategies to help teens take action, one small, doable step at a time.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Break free from the cycle of stress, guilt, and "I'll start tomorrow."
• Use tools from Motivational Interviewing (MI), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to build confidence and focus.
• Turn tiny wins into lasting habits that stick.
• Design your environment to make progress easier, not harder.
• Handle bad days without giving up on yourself.
  

Grounded in evidence-based psychology and written in plain, relatable language, Get Unstuck is a practical guide for teens, students, and young adults who want to stop overthinking and start growing.

Whether you're struggling with schoolwork, burnout, or low motivation, this book will show you that change isn't about being perfect, it's about learning how to start.
