And … oh!
Some situations deserve and demand a long hand analysis of the why and the who and the how of getting here. When there’s a big picture and everyone needs to be aware of all of it, turns your phones off, order a bottomless cup of coffee, and dig in until you’ve dug to the bedrock.
But … most times, we know all the background, we understand the territory … and we need to focus on two things.
What do we do next? And … oh! That’s the only thing.
If you don’t need the history, don’t waste energy on explaining exactly how the whole thing is based on a stream of misunderstandings or missed deadlines or mistakes or Miss Anythings.
Focus on the steps that are necessary to get to the other side of this thing, who will take them and when.
