There’s no question that having deadlines makes things move along! I just need to be stricter about the ones that aren’t imposed by external forces.

In school, I used to push the limits on my deadline. In other words, I waited till the last minute to get things done. The pressure of an impending deadline somehow seemed to toss me into this super-creative thinking mode.

Today, I try and break up tasks and set mini-deadlines. The more I stay on top of things, the better. The more I accomplish a mini-task, the more momentum I get to keep moving forward

Since I started a blog I’ve always been on a deadline, I need to eked out post every week for my audience. The good part of having a deadline is that I slowly earn the discipline I need to attend to my activities. Though having a deadline is irritating sometimes, I’m glad that it has prompted me to do what I have to do.

I was actually thinking of you as I was posting this (grin).

Hmm, real life as much like school as possible? (shudder)

Well, you know me, I need deadlines so much that I make up my own complicated ones. I need real life to be as much as school as possible or I’d never get things done.
