I go through periods of my life where I don’t want to establish deadlines for anything I’m working on. However, I know that I need deadlines. I just don’t want the pressure of keeping the deadlines or the accountability of something that lets me know I’ve failed to meet a goal I set out to accomplish.
Set deadlines for everything you do. Pick up a task and give yourself ten minutes to finish it and you will.
Don’t set a deadline and it simply will not get done.
There is nothing worth doing that isn’t worth having an end goal in mind for it.
When we avoid setting a goal (a standard by which we can determine success or failure) we ensure that the lowest level of work will be done and there will be no growth or accountability.
Don’t avoid deadlines. Embrace them.
