Approach to long-term planning
Effective long-term planning involves adopting a feedback loop approach rather than trying to over-plan initially. This means establishing high-level goals, such as completion deadlines, which allow for flexibility. Once the planning is in place, dedicating time to the project on a weekly basis leads to deeper insights into its structure and requirements. Engaging actively with the work enables the identification of necessary adjustments and refinements in strategy. It's important to limit initial planning and instead focus on starting the project, as clarity and specificity emerge through action and direct experience, allowing for more accurate predictions and detailed planning later on.
