- Work expands to fill the time available. People don’t want to look like they’re lazy, so they find extra tasks to tackle, even if they’re trivial. If you have six months to complete a project, it will take six months to complete. Set deadlines accordingly.

- The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
You need to get this done because it gets in the way of you getting the next thing done. If you can’t see past the end of a particular project, it’s too easy for it to feel bigger and more important than it actually is.
