Deadline: A Necessary Evil?

Time-pressure. There are really only two ways to go about it: love it or hate it. The absence of a stress-inducing deadline sure allows us to remain calm and think more clearly, but there is also nothing quite like the ‘push’ of a looming deadline. In the video above, Cafe Creative (Hungary) tries to illustrate that time, without the pressure, is required to foster creativity. But is it so?

I guess it boils down to finding the right balance, of knowing when to draw the line between work and play. And that, more than anything, is probably the most challenging thing.
