I’m extremely defensive and try to think through everything. Aside from analysis paralysis which is a real obstacle, it’s still not enough. Or rather, it’s not the best way to use a human brain. At some point for a complex project, no matter how smart and experienced you are, assumptions break down. The mental model changes based on “friction” with the gritty world. Prototyping is one way to confront wrong assumptions earlier rather than later.
All creative and intellectual endeavors have analogous process. Writers don’t structure a book and write it perfectly in a methodical fashion. Basically, turning chaos into order can – almost per definition – not be proceduralized.
