Lessons learned? Challenges?

I had a very hard time getting any real documents from the owner. He was not very organized and it was going to take him a lot of time to get everything I needed. He didn't want to do it. He seem to like to talk about himself a lot, so I let him go on for about 25 minutes agreeing with everything he said before I made my ask. He got me the documents by the end of the week. Sometimes people just want you to listen.
