E' esattamente quello che capita a me (e a tanti altri di UGI 
)...
I would like to say that people often ask me for advice on how to prepare to deliver a presentation. The truth is, however, that no one has ever asked me, and there may just be a reason for that. Nevertheless, here is Paul’s Painless Process for Preparing a Presentation (TM):
- One month away: Blog about it, generate as much hype as possible, invite everyone I know to the talk.
- Three weeks away: Promise myself to start preparing soon.
- Two weeks away: Promise myself that I’ll get to it this weekend, as it’s the last weekend I will have before the presentation.
- Weekend before the presentation: Convince myself that the talk is still days away, and I can prepare it on weeknights.
- Two days before the presentation: Convince myself that it can wait until tomorrow night.
- Night before the presentation: Stay up until at least 3AM the next morning preparing. Promise myself to start preparing sooner next time!
Someday I’ll learn my lesson
