A critical mistake is ignoring long-term constraints that are not currently urgent; if a constraint takes 6 months to resolve but won't become critical for another 6 months, it is actually urgent now and should receive regular time allocation (e.g., 1 hour weekly) to avoid time-poverty when it becomes critical.

Evidence Quote

If this constraint is not going to become urgent for another 6 months, but it takes you 6 months to unblock it, then actually, that's urgent now...You can often start unblocking that with a very small amount of time scheduled per week.
