cut corners
---
Go back to the drawing board
--
think outside the box
---
pull the plug
---
way off the mark
---
get down to business
---
I’ve got a lot on my plate
---
all in the same boat
---
go the extra mile.
---
tweak
---
on the same page
---
rule of thumb
---
hands are tied.
---
in a nutshell
---
put them on the back burner
---
see eye to eye
---
set the record straight
---
