Escape from Deadline

One of the hardest things in life one's professional work is well set the time. To you who is a consultant or elected as the head to handle a project or in completing daily work, must often deal with demands to complete the project according to the grace period / deadline has been given previously. Seemingly simple tasks can become difficult when you are not careful, which often makes the time available is not sufficient because we underestimate the things that sounds trivial. There are several ways to overcome this.

First, the most important thing is to understand the project you want to handle. This may sound very simple, but many people do not realize it. But there are differences in outlook between the client or manager who gives you a task to task on how to complete a project or how the expected appearance. There's a good idea to ask about details of things like, "What do you expect after the project is finished?" "What shape when you're done?" and so on. The more questions you ajkan, the more likely you and he (the client / manager) was able to equate the perception that clashes might occur on the project can be avoided.

Second, for the project to be sub-small parts. For these tasks into small bagianbagian can be done separately, and finish the task order. This will allow you in the completion of the task, because often times if not divided, a task will look very much and too complicated to be resolved.

After making a list of tasks to be done, the next step is to do a task that has divided them. Put a check for each task that has been completed. Then refer back to the list carefully and write down how much time previously required to complete the same task. By comparison, it can be seen how far you've managed to improve themselves. So what should you do in planning a task that has not been done before? Suppose you get a contract as a consultant to create a new site. Maybe you know a lot about supporting programs that will be used to build, or perhaps you are proficient in graphic design / look of the site. But one thing that became deficiencies: You do not have the experience to make your own site, and to do it to help others. To fix this, ask your friend, who knew he had no experience to build a site or know anyone else who knew about the intricacies of this one thing. Usually people who are professionals in this field will be happy to give input or advice.

What is difficult is when we underestimate the task was given, which ultimately could not be completed on time. If it's this, about what to do about it? The first strategy is to write down the reasons why the delay occurred, then temuai boss or your client to discuss them together.Admitting mistakes yourself without doing defense is very important, if we are able to do it, usually the manager or the client will be heartened us to forgive (if not too often). It is not impossible they give new input, so a little extra time so the task can be accomplished with more perfect than ever. If they are angry? Accept it, yet it is our own fault, which is important we really are going to make amends. Good luck!
