Complementary advice: while you rebuild the outlines in your head again, re-evaluate your old decisions about what really needs to be there. If your overall vision is too solidified in your head, there may be some minor decisions that were a good idea at the time ("well if we're already doing X, it's easy to also give them Y!"), but now that you're down in the muck they are complicating things far more than you imagined. Sometimes you can just drop a few things you actually don't need (but have become fixed in your vision though habit), ...and dependencies start collapsing, and the whole thing takes on a new shape. Also: don't overlook temporary solutions. You can often fix a dependency with a cheap hack that obviously won't scale in the long run... but it gets you over the hump, and you'll be able to replace it with the real solution down the road.
