You and your client may go back and forth on scheduling, but in the end, you’ll have controlled the project by controlling your time.

You’re projecting out to a time in the future where the reality in your head is that you’ve told him you don’t do what he wants done, he’s rejected you for it, and your life is somehow lessened as a result. And the second you realize it, you’ll break the spell that the projection has over you. Stop the Mental Masturbation.
