Do what you say you’re going to do. If others on the team are depending on you to complete a task before they can proceed with their responsibilities, be a good teammate. Give them your best estimate of when you will complete your step, and make sure you live up to that commitment by finishing on time. It’s better to predict later completion than to promise an earlier time and then fail to live up to your promise.
