From the picture above ,you might have come to know about what this article will be on.Yes exactly,this is again based on time management and time utilization and self growth for individuals,students,businessman and to everyone, like the previous article “Pomodoro Technique”.

Parkinson’s Law:

Your work will expand as much time you give to it.Like, if you give 10 days to finish the work then it will take 10 days for you to finish it but if you give 3 days to it then it will take 3 days for you to finish it. This is what Parkinson’s explains from his law.

From this graph you get some idea that your effort is inversely dependent on the time you give to your work.If you give more time then it will require less effort and if you give less time then it’ll require more effort.

You can get this law like this as well:

  • Work complicates to fill the available time
  • Work contracts to fit in the time we give it.
  • Data expands to fill the space available for storage.

Basically it all depends on your mindset how long do you want to finish the work or task.If you wait until the last minute, it only takes a minute to do.It’s not limited only to your work but also it’s a matter for your achievement and goals.Our mindset,simple called brain, is so powerful that you will become what you think and what you feed to your brain.

So,feed positive to your brain, keep positive mindset and follow the Parkinson’s law and Pomodoro Technique to achieve what you want and die for it until and unless you won’t achieve it. Once you achieve it then move to next level and be the best and extraordinary.

I would say be the best version of yourself at every moment rather than be better than yesterday.
