He provided plenty of great insight, do you not see it?

His emphasis is on: completion, budget, and timeframe. That's pretty much accurate. Being a good salesman or marketer is nice too. Nothing else matters. Everything else is a distraction or needless worry.

I understand what he said. What I don't understand is how someone in my situation shows evidence of completion, budget, and time frame. I suppose my final project will hit two of the three, but I have no way to prove that I will deliver under budget.
