Now, all of us from time to time fall into the habit of "wait, let me do this wee bit and I'll provide an update". Figure out a way in which you can reward yourself when you (over) communicate. With time you'll learn which part of the update is necessary and where lie the trimmings. Putting together a plan is based on knowledge gained from patterns. As an example, if you have been regularly going in hikes (or, traveling) you unconsciously acquire the method of getting ready/packing. Similarly for projects - the more you do or, participate, the better your skills become in being able to sharpen estimates and plan for the worst. > Thanks Kushal for the link ___ Users mailing list Users@lists.dgplug.org http://lists.dgplug.org/listinfo.cgi/users-dgplug.org

Hi, Please have a read https://lawgon.livejournal.com/34609.html And then think about it as a mail you received in real life, not for GSoC. All of those points are still valid.
