Notes

A Deadline serves as a Commitment Devices, helping us overcome our tendency to Procrastination by giving us a punishment of some sort if we are delayed. This also helps limits the effect of Parkinsons Law, by declaring a clear end date for the task, we can be relatively certain that the task wouldn't take more than x amount of time, in contrast with not having a deadline where it can extend until infinity.
