The Art of the Possible? Yes, but only for yesterday’s tasks

It is often say of Scrum that it is the Art of the Possible. In fact, Ken Schwaber even calls it a fundamental principle of Scrum.

Today, Ron Jeffries reminds us on the ScrumDevelopment mailing list that it is too tempting to use it as an excuse to stall and stop making more progress.

If [an organization] uses the notion of being “pragmatic” to permit themselves to be stagnant or nearly so, I find that troubling.

Thanks Ron.
