ParticipantParkinson law ? U don’t know what parkinson law is? Parkinson law is a very useful law which states two things
1. We tend to perform better under time constraints
2. It state that the amount of time you give the task is equivalent to amount of time the task wll take
Now lets, take some examples to help this understand better
Ex: If you have a week to finish research paper for class implies the paper wll take all week to finish . Some ppl have a tendency to complete the project at last minute . Parkinson in here is , how you can wait till the night before major paper due ,stay up all night finish the paper and still get a decent grade . The paper itself take 4-5 hrs to complete but most ppl spend an hour here and their over the the whole week to finish the paper. Many ppl wait until the night before the paer is due and spent all 5 hrs to complete it. Most of the time this work unless u screwed up in last minutes.
Instead of just waiting until the last possible minute, it’s better to move ur deadline before
.
For ex assighned project to be completed within 2 days, and act like the paper is to be submited within 2 days . After completing the project ppl can spent rest of d day feeling satisfied. The remaining days can be used in recheck, spelling , gramatical error etc
Similarly we apply thiS law in acturial science where a person can make a goal of completing tasks.
For ex: Complete the sylabus before a month and spent rest of time as a tension free . The remaing days can used as to gain accuracy hurdel your speed clear ur basic doubts and yeah the most imporatnt thing “FEEL FULL OF CONFIDENCE”. Completing earlier with full utility wll not only increases ur confidence but also reduces the nervousness. And studing actuarial science requies a ppl with full vitamin of confidence and accuracy.
