Discussion on: Evergreen skills to use throughout your career?

[Scott Tadman]

There's a few things that are important in construction projects, especially as applied to software:

• Knowing what's easy, what's difficult, and what's possible.
• Estimating how long something will take, and how much it will cost.
• Setting priorities, knowing what's important, what's secondary, and what's a distraction.
• Anticipating failures and having back-up plans.
• Working within given constraints to achieve the best outcome.
