Goal Setting & Achievement Podcast: Business|Productivity Tired of Breaking Your Goal Deadlines? Here's How to Stop
Deadlines! Those little digital bullies that sit in our calendars, mocking us with their red font and exclamation points. If you're listening to this, chances are you've had a recent intimate encounter with the panic-inducing phrase "due yesterday" or found yourself crafting yet another creative excuse about why your project is fashionably late.
Don't worry – you're not alone in this deadline disaster dance. We've all been there, promising ourselves we'll start that important task "first thing tomorrow" while simultaneously opening another browser tab to watch videos of cats being confused by cucumbers. Here's the thing: breaking deadlines doesn't just stress you out, it's like slowly deflating your professional reputation one missed due date at a time.
Did you know that if you don’t start a task within the first 72 hours you are very unlikely to do it at all? Regardless of how difficult, time-intensive, or complex a task is we need to get started within 72 hours. This doesn’t mean you have to finish within 72 hours, it just means that you need to start. Keep that in mind when scheduling and planning.
The good news? You can absolutely turn this ship around, and you don't need to sacrifice your sanity (or your Netflix subscription) to do it.
