Keep the mission as simple and clear as possible. Complexity creates confusion.

Keep the mission as simple and clear as possible. Complexity causes confusion and makes execution more difficult. The simpler the strategy, the better.

Things go sideways. It’s a fact of life. Every plan will have unanticipated things that try to bring it down. Simple plans allow you more flexibility and allow teams to adjust without needing to scrap the entire plan. If a plan is too complex it becomes too difficult to adjust when the stuff hits the fan. Simple is Maintainable. Do the Simplest Thing.
