Jacqueline Snyder argues that big projects always take longer, cost more, and demand greater effort than expected. Easy, fast, and cheap work stays small. Extended timelines and higher costs are signs you're working on something that matters.
The big things come slower than you expect, are never easy, and always cost you more than you thought. And still, they're worth every bit of it. So listen, you thought once that you wanted it badly enough that it would just all come together, and it doesn't work that way. The big things will take longer than you planned, and they ask more of you than maybe you've even signed up for. And here's the part that you have to learn the hard way: that's not a sign that you're doing it wrong. That's just the price on everything that actually matters. The easy, fast, cheap things, they stay small and they keep you small. So if it's taking longer and costing more than you thought, good. Good, right? That usually means it's one of the big ones. So follow for more on this.
