My biggest regret as a narrative designer is that I cut my teeth on the idea that I was the lowest common denominator in the development process, that my job was to do what had been done before, to be seen but not heard and tiptoe around superior disciplines.

That attitude comes through in some of the talks I've done, and to this day I still struggle to stamp down the impulse to say "It's okay, don't worry about it, what I do is cheap, right?" Which does a disservice to me, to our game, and to others in the same role.
