Break the task into smaller components and prioritize them. Identify which aspects of the task are critical and which can be delayed if necessary. This can help you better manage your time and resources.

Upon receiving the task and deadline, i will assess the feasibility of completing it within the allotted time. If i discover that it’s not possible, i will promptly communicate my concerns to my boss. I will Clearly explain the reasons and provide supporting evidence, if possible . I will Offer alternative timelines or solutions that are realistic and align with the workload and capabilities. However i will Engage in a collaborative discussion to find a mutually acceptable solution. And acknowledging my commitment to deliver quality work.

If you're confident that the deadline isn't feasible, it's crucial to communicate this to your boss. Explain your concerns, providing realistic estimates of the time required and any potential obstacles. Propose a revised deadline or suggest ways to streamline the task to meet the original timeline. It's better to address the issue upfront rather than risk missing the deadline or delivering subpar work.
