There was a Saint that said: “I meditate one hour everyday, well everyday except when I have a lot of work, that day, I meditate two hours.” That proverb is superb, when something is wrong and the team seems stressed I usually use it and we call a meeting to try to re-evaluate the situation. Definitely you end up prioritizing and cutting in order to keep things on track. Usually delays come from two sources: 1. Bells, whistles and nice to have functionality that are already working and keeps refining. 2. Engineers Ego: refactoring when they find that a nicer approach is possible. Just stop that and keep in mind that business comes first and you will eventually have time to rethink (if everything goes smooth). Good luck!
