A multi-year effort has a much higher chance at being abandoned than a three-month project does

Reason to set priorities
When we don’t set priorities, we tend to follow the path of least resistance.
We’ll pick and sort through the things we need to do and work on the easiest tasks– leaving the more difficult and less fun tasks for a “later” that, in many cases, never comes – or, worse...
