There's some dope advice at the end: "I recommend you use predictions to become reliable. Whenever you make commitments, ask yourself am I at least 80% confident I'll follow through here? When I'm not, I renegotiate immediately: Actually I expect I can have that for you in 3 weeks, 1 was optimistic. Actually I can't commit to do that at all because I'm super focused on x and y right now. The earlier you reset expectations the better. It's pretty easy to get other people to clarify their commitments in the same way." Overall solid.
I definitely recommend the HBR article as well.

"Founders bet years of their lives on finding product market fit, investors bet billions on the future value of ambitious startups, and executives bet that their strategies will increase a company's prospects. Here, predicting the future is not a theoretical superpower, it's part of the job."
