Deadlines do not scare me. I let go of worry and concentrate on getting things done I am relaxed when faced with deadlines because I plan ahead and break my task into manageable pieces. I know that procrastination only makes things more difficult for me, so I start on a project as early as I can in order to ease the pressure as the deadline approaches. I let go of the idea that things will just come together and instead take the time to make solid plans. I decide early if I'm going to need more supplies, more research, or more help. This way I have the time to find just what I need in a relaxed and thoughtful manner. I organize my steps, dividing the task into pieces that I know I can handle. I am far more productive when I choose to do a little bit every day, than if I save it all for a last minute crunch. I know when to delegate and have people lined up who can help me if, despite my best efforts, I find myself in a bind near the end of a project. Because I have taken the time to help them when they were the ones in need, I know I will be able to count on them to help me. I am proactive. By approaching each project with care and thoughtfulness, I am confident that I will be able to reach full completion without undue worry. Self-Reflection Questions: 1. Am I proactive or reactive when faced with a deadline? 2. Do I give myself time to deal with unexpected issues that might arise? 3. Have I fostered a team mentality by my own willingness to help others so I can get help when I need it? |
