Master Time Management with Parkinson’s Law
If you have a task pending after two weeks, you will probably take two weeks to finish it.
If you have a task that is pending tomorrow then you will finish it today.
Parkinson’s Law states that any work expands to fill the time available.
If you give your task more time than necessary, it will take longer to finish.
If you struggle with procrastination then assign limited and realistic time to any pending task.
Realistic because you should know which task needs how much time.
For example, if you have 5 blog posts to write and know you can do it in 5 days, don’t give it 15 days. Try to finish it in 5 days.
So next time you feel like procrastinating, set realistic time frames based on your understanding of each task’s requirements.
And don’t wait till the deadline.
