And to emphasise the point,  I have the followign situation as we speak

   - a meeting tomorrow for which I need to prepare a paper (tomorrow 
   morning) 
   - a 3 day workshop for which I need to prepare the materials (over the 
   weekend - sigh) 
   - a meeting on Thursday for which I also need to prepare some materials 
   (probably in the evenings of next week - sigh again)

 
Now if I use the planning approach that Neil proposes and I used as my time 
horizon, next Friday, I could find that I could get all my preparation tasks 
done by next Friday.  Whoopee.
 
But to repeat, this tells me nothing.  In fact, the reason it all fits inis 
 because next Friday I have lots of spare time and I can do all my 
preparation tasks next Friday long after I actually need to complete them.
 
The only way I can see whether I can meet my deadlines is to plan on  day by 
day basis.
