I tend to agree with almost everything in the article. What strikes me the most is that the word itself is actually bad, because it creates additional pressure that makes you weak. Example : I usually don't give estimates or deadlines to my clients and in the end I usually do the task in the same time as I would do it if I had a deadline. The only difference is that I work pleasantly and I don't need constant reminding : "Hey you have 3 days left"; "Hey you have 2 days left", etc... This makes me exhausted immediately.
