What possible answer do you think Shannon can give to that question that will improve the situation for you? Way to take personal responsibility!
Thank you LogicMan for sharing your insights on my question. I'm aware that it could be taken in the wrong way.
Although I admit I've a lot to learn and improve and kick my own ass this season, that was not what I meant (to shirk responsibility).
I had the opportunity to be privy to "esoteric knowledge" and a key takeaway was that such periods would make you to more prone to bad judgement and mistakes. In short, "what could go wrong would go wrong", whether you are aware of it or otherwise. I wondered how a person could prevent that from happening or minimize its effects, especially given that producing subs is very complex work. I imagine it was a very trying period (an understatement) for Shannon when he was pushing through with BASE. My turn to face a similarly described period is probably nearing, although I can't predict with the accuracy as Shannon does when that would happen, for how long, when it would peak etc. I know of no other solution than to "lay low" (and do practically nothing). I wanted to know how Shannon sees himself through it, produced his work with minimal interference by this natural phenomenon that affects everyone in their own time and space.
I do appreciate your candid reply and thank you for the opportunity to clarify on the matter.
