You've probably told yourself you work better under pressure but that's not a strategy, it's a habit. In this module, you'll discover why nearly everyone waits until the last minute, how urgency secretly drives your decisions, and why deadlines themselves are one of your most powerful tools for getting things done ahead of schedule.

Most professionals lose hours on projects before a single task is assigned, simply by skipping the questions that would have saved them. In this module, you'll build a pre-project intelligence habit by tapping experts, decoding the true purpose of your project, aligning your team early, and using historical research to put yourself ahead of schedule before the work even begins.

Your plan is only as strong as the thinking that went into it.
