Great advice about academic publishing. And it extends to other measurable end-of-year targets too. Rushing to “tick the box” before the holidays may lead to burnout, not quality. A rested brain in the new year will probably bring better ideas and better results.

You don't need to finish and submit your paper before the end of the year. You won't gain time if you do as nobody is going to review it over the holidays. And you know what, your paper is going to be so much better when you read through it with a well-rested brain in the new year.
