I am partial to the formulation, "Make it correct, make it clear, make it concise, make it fast. In that order." - Wes Dyer

  When I think of “make it work”, I think, “do any hackey thing you need to to get it to work”. Then in the next step, “make it right“, I refactor and clean up. It’s much like writing, where the advice is to write without censoring, then edit later. I think the idea is it’s always easier to edit something that exists, rather than write something correct the first time, or at least try to make it correct the first time. That being said, when I read your quote where it first says “make it correct”, I would skip the first step I mentioned above, which is a very important step. What are your thoughts?
