This is very close to how I operate. I usually don't miss deadlines, but I often come damned close. I have found that I am much more productive with 3-4 things on my plate as opposed to 1 or 2. Also, my interest in any given thing I am doing isn't consistent, and I now know that if I simply maintain these things when interest falls, my interest will eventually rise again, and I will be very glad that I did.

I force myself to do things quite often, however. Sometimes it's just pure force of will. I want to die having done a number of things.
