          I like deadlines. They help you to focus on what's needed to complete a product/phase/whatever, rather than anything else. The problems isn't the deadlines, it's the focusing on other stuff.

              At my first job there was an expression... You have to shoot the engineers to finish the code. Everyone thinks they have a great feature to add, it'll only take 5 minutes. Even PMs and Business Owners think the same. Reality is, if it isn't a critical requirement... leave it alone! Come back if there is time (rarely). Otherwise, it is a billable item in phase 2. We do want to make money, right? It'll only take 5 [minutes|hours|etc]... and 4 months later it is part of the QA process, still causing bugs that delay the release, and everyone forgets it was not even a critical part of the system.
