It seems that successfully completing a project requires a deadline, but it has to be a deadline that spells failure if not kept. For instance, the deadline for tiling the bathroom could be in time for your Christmas party, or the deadline for an advertising postcard for a small business could be two weeks before the availability of a new service or product.

I discovered that I have more time for reading, doing things I normally don't have time for and I think it's always better to meet with other people or to go to the cinema instead of sitting in front of TV. But I think that internet and social media are taking place of TV. Although I don't watch TV at all, I spent a lot of time checking and answering emails for example.

However, 66 and 67 are tricky ones and related to each other. Is it time to quit your project or you just need to try harder?

Spend time reading, noodling, practicing your craft, coming up with ways of advertising your business. Much more fruitful than the drivel that's on TV. Couldn't agree more about the TV.

That sounds like the opposite of the TV one. Starting and finishing though.. that is a huge asset. Better to finish 5 projects in your life that failed than to have started and not finished 10.
