Interesting! I had always thought that sketching deadlines brings the best but timeboxing completes it with its second half of deciding when to start it.

- mrweasel 2y agoFor me the "What to do after you first your priorities" have also been pretty useful. I often have tasks that are important, but for some reason I don't want to do them, e.g. database migrations, production upgrades and things of that nature. Once they're scheduled and I get started, I might be able to bang out my priorities in a few hours. I'd then previously be sort of stuck, because mentally I had decided that that was the day. Now I have things I know I can start on.
