Project Design: Finish the Plan Now

If you are having trouble getting started on, or are bogged down in, the project-planning process, here’s a trick to try: Imagine your plan is due today and finish it today.* That’s right, set an arbitrary deadline and meet it. Find a place where you can work without being disturbed or distracted and focus all your attention on the project. Answer, to the best of your ability and without reference to other people or documents, the key project design questions. Brainstorm multiple strategies. Jot down as many details as you can as quickly as you can.

For simple projects, your day’s planning work may be quickly revisable in proposal format. For more complex projects, the result may be a checklist of people and documentary sources you need to consult to develop a strong project plan. In either case, at the end of the day you should be able to see the major outlines of your project and how to finish your plan.
