1. If you are coding or writing, multiply the expected time of any specific task by ∼ 1.5x (the real completion time will now probably still be 1.5x longer than your new expected time, but you tried).

1.5x matches my real-world SW dev experience.

I read somewhere that a rule of thumb is to double the number and then scale it up by one order of magnitude.

Example: 1 day == 2 weeks, 1 week = 2 months, 1 month = 2 years. More than a month = Let’s not even start.
