        • Breaking down our own case study and what we have learned
        • Learning to adjust to new plans and new ideas that seem simple but are more complex

          • 6:00 “How Bad Can It Be?

          • You think it will be easy because you do this every week → But what is actually involved
            • Behind the scenes can be more work to a job then you plan on
            • Ex: We had a new podcast that had new layouts, live chat, new graphics, etc.
            • More things can also be connected then you may think
            • Many interconnected aspects that rely on each other

              • 9:19 What do do when it doesn’t go as planned

              • There are moments where you say “this is bad”
              • Can be teachable moments as to why we do tech rehearsals
              • You have to be ready to make adjustments
              • You may think you do these things every day
                • Does not make it easy
                • Does not make it fast

                  • 12:05 Very Complex

                  • You can forget how hard things are because you have been doing it for so long
                    • Going back to the beginning, you can forget details
                    • Forget how long it can take
                    • Easy does not equal fast
                      • We know how but it may not be efficient
                      • This is key to remember

                        • 15:00 Complications

                        • The word complications come from watches
                        • Each minute, second, and all the inner workings are called complications
                        • The concept of having a watch with hour, minute and second is simple but putting that all together with gears and having it work together is very complex

                          • 18:18 multiple levels of complication

                          • Lift and Shift
                            • Shorthand for we have a process that we can just replace with the new project
                            • But with this, you miss everything else you have to add
                            • Not as simple as lift and shift
                            • You have to get down to the lowest level to find out what is different between your projects

                              • 21:00 Think about what you can do differently next time

                              • Ask more questions
                              • Think of details
                              • Do a demo
