Does anyone struggle with just jumping in and starting to write or building a slide? It’s not a lack of motivation for me but feel like I need to get reassurance all the time that I’m thinking about stuff right. Maybe it’s because I’m still confused about what is happening within my project.

I feel this in my soul.

Bestie I think this is all of us. For me I want as much context as possible because I know how I understand things is often very different from how others do, so if there is not much context and they have not set clear expectations, it feels like I've already been set up to fail because I cannot meet unspoken expectations.

I can produce something from scratch if I have the leeway to or from a sample if provided, but if I have no leeway and nothing to go on... I'm gonna get yelled at because someone else failed to communicate what they wanted and that's not fair to me.

I always ask for examples when I'm working on something for the first time. If there aren't examples, I'd probably frame something up then have a quick call to make sure it's in line with what they're expecting.

This is what I do as well. Thankfully I have a boss who keeps everything she's ever worked on and seems to have an example for everything so she always sends me something to go off of which really does help.
