When my planning guesses get treated like promises

I can lay out a whole project and walk it to completion, and I'm proud of how well I plan. The hard part is that every date I estimate gets repeated back to me later like a promise I signed in blood. I gave my best guess, and now I'm being held to it as if I could see the future.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You plan projects well, but your best-guess timelines get treated as promises you must keep.

If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
