to reflect how limited time windows affect how individuals select what tasks to complete.
These studies showed us that people’s tendency to procrastinate on what is important to finish less-important urgent assignments reflects a basic psychological preference. Many of us know this intuitively; we constantly check and respond to emails rather than work on the revenue report or our team project. We choose to postpone a routine medical check-up that could be life-saving — say, by diagnosing a cancer at an early, curable stage — in order to visit a store for its soon-to-end sale.
But sometimes a longer deadline is necessary if a task is inherently more complex or there are outside factors that are going to add time to the schedule. Can productivity still be wrangled? Our results suggest yes.
