Shoutout to my old boss who told me my project timelines were always a fantasy
After he pointed out I was padding every single task by 20% 'just in case' and it was making my whole schedule useless, I switched to tracking actual hours for a month in a simple spreadsheet and now I add a flat 15% buffer at the very end instead.

That's still padding, just at the end. The buffer should be based on your actual data, not a flat guess.
