Thank you - I'm delighted it helped
Glad to have found your channel, really useful! The way I had been intuitively thinking about it is that differently from deliverables, activities and tasks tend to be written prescriptively, so a good litmus test for me has been what would happen if I were to outsource the process of completing that deliverable. So if my project requires an image of a robot and I have in the plan an activity that says "Draw an image of a robot" just because that's the way I might personally go about it, I just created an unnecessary constraint: maybe the vendor would produce the image by using 3D software or photo compositing or AI generation, or maybe I could use a stock image. What my project really cares about is that the image of the robot exists in a way that satisfies the acceptance criteria. Of course this particular problem could be solved by just changing the wording to "Produce an image of a robot", but that's when the definition you mentioned kicks in: processes are a series of steps, so tracking the "process" of producing the image adds a lot more complexity than the binary question of "Does the image of the robot exist in a satisfying state or does it not?" By looking at the robot image as a deliverable, even if it's going to be produced internally with its own phases and tasks, that can be its own (smaller) project without its granularity polluting the main project.
These videos really help me as a new project manager
