Rick Ive been retired 10 years but even then the ability to talk it out was diminishing rapidly. No one was answering their phones as they were insisting on email. I agree with you that talking saves so much misunderstanding consequently Time but when working on a project it can become impossible.
Like you, I was tremendously motivated by deadlines. The switch to email and now other communications eg Texting was FRUSTRATING. Perhaps my reputation for running at the mouth (talking too long) and what i called my Quantum leaps of logic (jumping to another unrelated topic) in my conversations was not as helpful to others working with me.
Regarding your lessons:
Communication is a big one; thanks for sharing that with us. For a long time, I tended to emails because I didn’t want to face people; over time, I found that to be counter-productive and face-to-face is more efficient – if somewhat wearing on my co-workers as I was constantly trying to cram as much information as possible into the meeting.
I love planning – sometimes planning gets in the way of actually doing the project! (In that case, it’s a problem, a form of procrastination.) Planning is a game to me. It shows in my writing too; as I build a world for a given story, it’s not uncommon for me to get bogged down in the worldbuilding and forget to write the story! I write better stories when I “wing it” and then go back to fix the inconsistencies in the world build.
Something else:
I had completely forgotten you were in “History Bites.” When I looked that up, I hadn’t realized you had been in The Frantics. I was in college when that group started, and I and my friends thoroughly enjoyed the comedy you created.
