About this listen
Deadlines aren’t the problem; using the wrong system for how you respond to pressure is.
In How to Make Deadlines Work FOR You, we explore why some people thrive under urgency while others shut down, and how to build organization systems that support productivity instead of stress.
This episode walks through practical ways to manage deadlines by matching tools to your work style, whether you need time pressure to get started or structure that reduces overwhelm.
In this episode, we discuss:
Why deadlines affect motivation differently for different people
How to tell whether you need more urgency or more flexibility
Organization systems that increase focus without panic
How to manage assignments, projects, and responsibilities more sustainably
Why productivity improves when systems match how you actually work
This episode is especially useful for college students and graduate students, but the strategies apply to anyone balancing multiple deadlines at school, work, or in creative projects.
Deadlines don’t have to control you. They can work for you!
