When mapping workflow dependencies, draw arrows for both input-output dependencies and resource dependencies (shared attention, tools, or collaborators), since steps sharing scarce resources are effectively sequential even if outputs are unrelated.
Before optimizing any workflow step, measure actual elapsed time across three to four execution cycles rather than relying on felt difficulty or estimated duration, because subjective experience systematically misidentifies bottlenecks.
