Currently in a project situation with no budget and blue sky dreams. I can't say how much I love this article enough.

I think one of the unspoken insights here is: give your projects a budget.

I've been with two startups now that didn't do this and see them either think there is no budget or there is infinite budget. Ultimately both CEOs would say "Just come ask me" which means that you now have to pester the busiest person at the company to get a budget. It is effectively giving the project no budget.
