Murphy's law
Article Abstract:
All managers are aware that unexpected difficulties can emerge at any time. However, they still tend to underestimate the amount of time required to complete a particular task and how difficult undertaking the task is likely to be. In order to ensure that unexpected difficulties are kept to a minimum, it is worth making systems as simple as possible. It is important to focus on deadlines in key areas and to carefully consider anything that could possibly go wrong.
