If you promise to do things a certain way, but you find a better solution when actually working the project, can you implement new ideas and scrap old ones?

However trying to come up with a set of goals which you think is overly unrealistic will also hinder your success later because you will be judged based on what you promise(proposal). It is completely ok to not being able to achieve what you promise. But you will have to prove that you put significant effort in achieving your goals (which can get tricky). -Supun On Wed, Mar 29, 2017 at 5:23 PM, Apoorv Palkar <[email protected]> wrote: How many goals should we aim to put in our proposal? Is it better to put in small goals and over-deliver? Thanks -- Thank you Supun Nakandala Dept. Computer Science and Engineering University of Moratuwa
