I see people saying if it's too prescriptive it's not very good but this isn't how I interpret this. My interpretation is that you are simply giving more clarity on what is required - i.e. the end result, not the process or route you take to get there. Increased detail on what exactly is required would help me to start and finish tasks because the increased detail would take away the anxiety of "am I doing this right, is this enough" and hopefully avoid going off track because of misunderstanding exactly what is required. Basically it's avoiding vagueness / room for misinterpretation of the brief.

i like to be creative but having the boundaries clearly defined is very useful

Very good however I prefer to make it up as I go along - if it's too prescriptive my brain finds other solutions or even outcomes that achieve the same thing and that's not always appreciated.

This helps but is tough to ensure it always gets put in.

Very helpful! I often think the task through and write the process down.

Personally I find the advice too prescriptive. My preference is to know the outcome then work with me to understand the first few steps in getting there. This gives me the space to be creative whilst not letting me get bogged down in task specifics.
