Yeah, you need to iterate to refine the process.
If every iteration hurts then is iterating a lot really a good plan? In each iteration one believes this is the final iteration that will last forever. If not, you're doing it wrong. How is that compatible with planning to iterate?

Does a single girl out there EXIST that could understand even a few of these items? Particularly the one about weekends?
I've scoured my campus and I have yet to find one.
