Sticking with deadlines...

[CinnamonStar]

Well I don't know how you're doing but I have a massive problem in sticking with deadlines.^^

It's always been hard for me when I can't work on my own, on my own pace and when I know that someone asked me to do something, for that date and on that time. So obviously I cross every single time limit haha.=D

 

Right now I have a 10 pages summary file to write for uni (with original sources too ._.) and it should've been ready last Friday, but for some reason I started way past the deadline... No need to say I'll need at least one more week to finish.^^'

 

Well I passed every year so far but I know that it's not going to work like that when I find some work so I need a solution.xD

 

Anyone else who can't submit, finish or start in time?

People who don't have that problem: How do you do it?

[Yankee]

I have that problem.

I tend to be so lazy, so that is helpful -.-

BUT...I still have issues with doing stuff on time anyway...

Don't really know why at times o.0

[Akira]

Somehow I manage to hit 90% of deadlines successfully but most of the time it's a night-before-deadline job for me.

Yeah we need more motivation... Even though I'm motivated most of the time but my brain and arms don't work together.^^

Well it's a plus stat... I wish I could do that but most of the time I start a few nights after the deadline.._.'

 

PS: I still haven't started writing the analysis that I should've finished last Friday.XD

I have no motivation other than I can leave if I do...lol

Weird thing about me, I don't really care for much either way. Things that make others happy don't affect me, and things that make others sad usually don't do anything to me.

I just have my own breakdowns at times..lol

[CinnamonStar]

Yeah totally.

[Azmodius]

I'm very lazy. I don't have a strong work ethic enless I'm doing something I like. Like Lego's, I can stay awake for a few days and nights to build.

[WTF]

im in my livng room.

 

I want food.

 

dont wanna get up

[Womi]

I always start the day before deadline.

And it always worked for me. ;D

 

It has never been such a big task, though.

[Cloister]

Maybe stop being on YCM so much? ^^

 

It usually makes me distracted and thus making me NEVER finished in time.

[Cin]

I stick to 'em, but its always a mad rush at the end.

 

For my last bit of coursework (I'm talking about 2 years ago now), I was behind everyone else (got moaned at for it) had a mad rush and ended up finishing before the rest of the class, and the last 2 hour lesson I was there 10 minutes. I got a C on that coursework.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I usually get them through on time, but occasionally, I can't keep up with them.

[Cloister]

I usually don't care tbh. I just makes something half-decent and get a pretty good score on it. But I am 80% of the time late with whatever I need to do.

[Fizzy™]

Whenever I feel lazy I don't get em done in time.

Whenever I'm not lazy I get them done in time.

 

For example, I should be finishing off my Technology project briefing today because todays the deadline but I'm too lazy and I'm on YCM instead, lol.

 

But I usally get great grades ;)

[~ P O L A R I S ~]

I can't find it in me to start on a good deal of obligations unless I set my alarm for 3:00 AM, I go to sleep at around 8:00 PM, I wake up at 3:00 AM, and magically start whatever I'd had trouble starting before. The conditions just seem better to start work at 3:00 AM for me I suppose.

 

It's really starting that's the hardest for me, once I start I can generally continue. That's just how I do things though, might be an entirely different situation for you. Considering that I consider exactly 50% the best mark possible though (minimizes your workload amirite), you might not want to take it from me.

[CinnamonStar]

Don't have a problem with grades, somehow managed to sneak my road til university but I know it can't work like that forever.-.-

 

PS: I still haven't started, I think I'll make a cake or something, that's what I do.=D

[Cloister]

Ahh. Cakes, I want one too. Give me a little piece of it?

[Rusty Shovel]

What's a "deadline" ?

[CinnamonStar]

I always feel a sick urge to make cakes when I'm lazy.=P

And it's the date you have to end something. Like school work or work.

[Cloister]

Yeah, you always do something totally different. You almost never do the actual work that's important... I have soda now, I don't need cake. C=

[cerberus21]

I suck at sticking to deadlines. I have a huge Research Paper due in two weeks in English. It's my Junior Thesis paper, and I have one paragraph done. I need Seven pages and thirty note cards. So yeah.

[Fizzy™]

Yeah' date=' you always do something totally different. You almost never do the actual work that's important... I have soda now, I don't need cake. C=

But I need cake! :lol:

 

When I'm lazy and I don't feel like doing my work I demand for cake. That's what I'm doing now and I haven't started my Technology Project briefing yet.

Better get started on it or I'll never get it done!

 

Or maybe I'll just be lazy...Gimme Cake!!

I make a mental note in my mind that the assignment/project/work is actually due a few days or a week before the actual due date. So I'll have it done beforehand, and when I realize it isn't due, it gives me an extra few days to make last-minute changes.

I cannot do that. Seriously, how can you do it?

 

I cannot just do that...

I have a calender/notebook where I write down every single assignment/test I have, so I just manipulate it and make the assignment due earlier.
