Neil Fiore, Ph.D., is a psychologist, author, and peak performance coach whose groundbreaking work on procrastination has helped hundreds of thousands of professionals reclaim their productivity and well-being. Best known as the author of The Now Habit: A Strategic Program for Overcoming Procrastination and Enjoying Guilt-Free Play, Fiore reframed procrastination not as a character flaw but as a coping mechanism for anxiety — and offered a practical, compassionate path out of it. His book has sold over 700,000 copies worldwide and remains a cornerstone of the personal productivity genre.
Drawing on decades of clinical experience and research in cognitive-behavioral psychology, Fiore developed the "Now Habit" system, which emphasizes reverse scheduling, strategic guilt-free play, and reframing work to reduce psychological resistance. His approach has been widely adopted by coaches, therapists, and corporate training programs around the world. In addition to his work on procrastination, Fiore is a respected speaker and consultant on stress management, resilience, and peak performance for athletes and business professionals alike.
Fiore holds a doctorate in psychology and has worked with clients ranging from Olympic athletes to Fortune 500 executives. His other books include Awaken Your Strongest Self and The Now Habit at Work. Through Nightingale-Conant, his audio programs bring his psychology-backed strategies directly to listeners seeking to break the cycle of delay and build the focused, energized mindset of high performers.
