Many people, in an effort to impress or meet expectations, often underestimate how long a task will take, leading to stress and subpar work. Chris draws parallels to project management and the tactics used by Scotty from Star Trek, who consistently overestimated time requirements to ensure successful outcomes. By adopting this strategy, you can create a buffer that allows for thorough work, reduces stress, and impresses stakeholders when tasks are completed ahead of schedule. Chris shares practical advice on overestimating time for tasks, scheduling accordingly, and reaping the benefits of a more relaxed and productive workflow.
