1. Beat Parkinson's Law:
this famous law states that:
Work expands to fill the time available for its completion,
It means, if you set three hours for writing an article, you will write it in three hours. And if you allocate a week for writing the same article, you will complete it in a week.

To beat Parkinson’s Law and to be more productive, allocate lesser time to a task than you usually do. Focus on the essentials.
