Good post from @anildash about writing better documents ("resumes or reports, budgets or broadsides"). This part spoke to me:

"Very often, people feel a lot of anxiety about the need to preface their big dramatic point with lots of build-up. But you almost never want to be building dramatic tension in a professional context; this isn't a thriller where you're trying to surprise them with twists and turns."

I'm a bit of a storyteller, and always need to fight this urge!
