    We did it not because it was easy, but because we thought it would be easy.

      The fact that I now know is the very reason why I no longer start.

      Don’t tell those other suckers, though, or else nothing will ever get started.

    i use scotty’s 2:1 rule now: if i think it’s going take an entire sprint i automatically tell my managers that it’s either a story or an epic. if i’m sure that i only need the sprint, then it becomes a story; but if i’m not sure i can get done in a sprint, it becomes an epic.
