Why do we feel more productive at the last minute, like when a deadline is near?
In: Other
it’s like a survival instinct kicking in. when the deadline’s close, our brain releases stress hormones that make us more alert and focused. this “fight or flight” response helps us concentrate and work faster. plus, the time pressure forces us to stop procrastinating and actually get stuff done.
Because you are panicking and motivated to actually *do* the work.
Until then, you were taking your time. But now you’re out of time.
