00:00I don't have any deadlines on my mind.
00:02I will do that whole day peacefully.
00:04Deadline just creates pressure on myself.
00:07If you could do it normally,
00:09then don't you think you would have probably
00:11already finished it by now?
00:12Why would you wait for the last hour or the last day?
00:16Surely nobody puts you on a deadline of one day.
00:20Whenever submission dates are there
00:22with respect to assignments,
00:24you get what, one week, 15 days, sometimes two months.
00:27So why would you be staring at the last day of submission?
00:32Had there really been love,
00:33you would have completed it well ahead of time
00:36and submitted it already.
00:38This means you need the deadline.
00:40This means that it is just an imaginative fancy
00:43that you would complete it even in absence of deadline.
00:47You remove the deadline and you find you will do nothing at all.
