Let’s say you’ve decided to do a project and are at the “now what?” place. (This scenario assumes you are working with a professional.) It’s time to set some priorities- which can be in many areas. For example, timing- do you want your project done because a wedding, graduation, holiday, or other big event is coming up? Then a timeline needs to be set so the project will be completed in plenty of time. Even if there is no specific event, setting a deadline is helpful to keep the project on track.
