Daft (Punk) common sense

I love finding quotes in another context that could have been written about proposals. Take this from the Guardian newspaper earlier  in the week, interviewing Thomas Bangalter of dance act Daft Punk:
“The only secret to being in control is to have it [from] the start. Retaining control is still hard but obtaining control is virtually impossible.”
He was talking about the media circus surrounding the release of the band’s new album – but the same clearly applies to proposals: if you don’t get your team working in the right way and to a clear plan  from the outset, the project is forever going to be a struggle.
