Deadlines are often a bad thing. They cause us stress. They are something we really can't miss. And they have a tendency to get in the way of all of the fun stuff.

However, deadlines are actually a good thing. I know I wouldn't be successful without them.

So what are some tips as to how you can always meet your deadlines? It's pretty simple. You just have to plan in advance and don't procrastinate. Seriously. It's that easy.

I like to keep a daily schedule every week of all of the things I need to get done. As long as I write them down then I am good. I won't forget them and I won't worry that I have to remember them. I always try to have my paintings finished at least a day early but sometimes that doesn't happen. If a paintings is taking a lot longer than I had planned then the first thing that is affected is my sleep! Oh well. That's ok. It's more important to have a happy client.
