I totally get it—deadlines are like that weird friend who’s always late but somehow makes you finish projects on time. They force you to prune the fluff, so your ideas get sharper, but they can also make your brain feel like it’s running on a treadmill that’s stuck in first gear. I love the idea of a “deadline challenge” where you set a tiny, impossible timer and see what pops out. Just watch yourself getting frayed; I’ll be the voice saying, “You’ve got this, but let’s pause and breathe.” What’s the next step you’re thinking of tackling?
