very nice article.
i'd really like to stress out the communication part. Be clear an be honest, stop saying you arealmost done - or I hope to be done.
And no. you are not going to loose credibility if you ask for more time and a deadline extension. everybody makes mistakes, or realized there were flaws in the design, holes in the requirements or that the estimate was not accurate ( btw. it should be made - discussed by at least 3 people).
You loose credibility when you say until the very last day, all good, i will make it - and then you don;t your code is a mess and full of bugs.- and not even the first time you do that, but only if it becomes an habit of yours..
This. You need to be clear about what's going on. When your manager asks you how are you going, don't just say, good, fine, I'll make it. It's better to be more precise about what tasks are already done and what is left. If you are clear about your progress every day, it will definitely be better than just wait until the last day to say everything you didn't do.
