Nothing is more frustrating than having a bag of ideas but an empty one of time & budget. However, I experienced that having a lack of deadlines is as unproductive as a lack of time, which supports the basic idea of this article.

It can be as much about "not designing" as it is about "designing". Nothing starts off a Monday morning better than thinking about booze before 11AM!

I think you are dead-on about the creative danger of “over-refinement”. 9 out of 10 edgy ideas come at the beginning of a project, when you have a blank canvas to work from. Detail and revisions should only be made when you realize they don’t strip the originality and voice of a design.

But it certainly is a challenge. It can be as much about “not designing” as it is about “designing”.
