"Need Motivation? Declare a Deadline"

An article written my Phyllis Korkki. This article discusses ways around deadlines as well as different kinds of deadlines: ones with no clear deadline, large projects, and ones nobody cares about but yourself. Korkki talks about how to meet a big self-imposed deadline and states that you must divide your work into small tasks and have a deadline for each one of those. This sounds like the first journal entry we had, where we broke up our first two weeks into small deadlines for ourselves to get started. It's hard for me to follow these little benchmarks but with the semester coming to a close, I'm going to need to set some more for myself.
