Not everyone is like that. I was at business school with a man who was the opposite - he would do everything last minute (as far as I was concerned). I remember that he started his final Management Report (something that most of us spent 4-5 months on) about 2 weeks before it was due. He then spent about 20 hours a day and produced a great piece of work.
Not many of my clients are like that either. I've just completed a large piece of work which involved a final written report which ran to about 50 pages or so (there is quite a lot of technical stuff in there, so it's not quite as boring as it sounds). I happened to mention that I'd be happy to present the findings to the Board at some point - to find that they want me in Paris on Monday! As it happens, I can move a couple of things around and get out there easily for an 11am start - and be back in the office in the afternoon. It does, however, mean a long weekend of preparing the slides.
Oh well - I didn't want to sit in the sun anyway!
