It's not as complicated as it might seem. It's really simple. Either you get something done by this deadline or you die (or your dream dies, or your project dies, whatever). If you don't make the deadline, nothing good will happen for you. That's my simple analysis of the subject.

I try to divide tasks into the smallest chunks possible and create a deadline for each little chunk (even if it's fifteen from now). I think deadlines are very important to get things done.

A great way for that is to make your deadlines public. Telling one of my friends that I was writing my first book made sure I was forced to check in with him on a regular basis and is probably the only reason I ever got done!

It's when the coveted creative juice oozes and that gets the job done faster and better. Setting deadlines actually gives more room for complacency.

I feel like this habit has been encouraged and perfected by some of my work environments, but now that I freelance, it's something I'd like to change.
