这样的情景我猜很多人都经历过吧？其实，让我们如此有动力的就是那个悬在头顶的deadline。所以，这股动力就被称为deadline drive。

Deadline drive refers to the strong motivation you feel when a deadline is drawing closer. The closer you get to a deadline the more motivated you are to complete the assigned work. Your procrastination will disappear, and all kinds of ideas will come to your mind in a few minutes. At that moment, you may feel awesome about yourself.

Deadline drive(“死线动力”或“期限动力”)指某项工作的最后期限越来越近时，感受到的强大工作动力。离期限越近，完成工作任务的动力就越足。这个时候，拖延症不见了，脑子里几分钟就能爆发出各种想法。你觉得自己简直棒极了！

For example:

Let's do this assignment man, my deadline drive has finally kicked in.

哥们儿，咱们把这个任务给做了吧，我的死线动力终于出现了。
