I love the concept of deadline/lifeline because at least for me, it keeps me banging the keyboard 😄 I didn’t even know the term “lifeline” is used widely, I just thought it would be a cool new name for deadline 🤓
Lifeline kind of makes the whole thing sound more human and optimistic. If I think this through, that’s just how deadline has always shown to me. When you start to think of dates or returning limits for some task in a positive way, you don’t stress that anymore as much as earlier.
Phil Ollye has stated really well that turning deadlines into lifelines means thinking of them in terms of your pathway to success, results, and achieving your goals. Remember always think of the bigger picture and the finishing line.
