    It’s called JIT (just in time) manufacturing and it’s a legit management technique…

    JIT manufacturing helps organizations control variability in their processes, allowing them to increase productivity while lowering costs.

    And that’s the totally real reason why i do it in my personal life. 🙄

    If you set the deadline early you can remember you set it early and keep procrastinating past the deadline as usual!

    Sometimes the deadline is like the only motivator to do the thing, if that is not enough the fate of the task was probably decided anyway.

    I’m pretty good at excuses to extend deadlines. Also great at excuses why it just shouldn’t get done at all, and I never wanted it to get done anyway

      But by extending the deadline, I have to stop working again, until it comes close.
