Mike,
You are a wise man. This is the key, definitely.
We have tried hard to be honest over the past two years. The difficulty of honest communication is more about how much wishful thinking your team uses.
I'm an optimist to a fault, even as far as being gullible. Therefore, I sometimes project only the best possible outcome. In this case, I know that we must practice more in order to get more of a realistic handle on what our robot and team can do in the time allowed (or less).
So, not only honesty is key, but also realistic thinking.
Andy B.
