im always stressed about work because of this very reason i dont present my work-in-progress well because my steps to get a final result wont align with a typical process im also not good at explaining it so it seems like i have the wrong idea or like im jumping around   my manager will check in tell me im heading down the wrong direction so i shift my focus to exactly what they wanted get a different result then end up doing my original process anyways which gets the correct results in the end
