&gt;<i>Why it&#x27;s hard to leave things incomplete</i><p>Not sure for office work, but any creative (musician, writer, etc) has 1000s of things incomplete.<p>So the effect might only hold for<p>(a) things like Netflix where you enjoy the series and there&#x27;s a cliffhanger (but even then, not everybody bingewatches the whole series)<p>(b) things like LinkedIn profile, where they hammer you on the head with nagging about its incomplete status
