This is a good article. Not because it's got some crazy insights or radical suggestions - but because it's pragmatic and sensible advice for any project. It definitely resonates with my experience - the biggest risk is just losing focus or losing track of what you're meant to do.

It's refreshingly free of buzzwords and rigid "process" too!

Yeah the hardest thing is to focus intensely and have a strong vision for what exactly the output should be directionally. The second hardest is actually getting the project finished - that requires sustained intense focus.

Theres nothing more to it than that. Frameworks etc blah blah blah. Who cares. Get the work done.
