Plan a design before you start.[...]
Plan to throw away at least one design and start over.
Try to keep your design fairly compartmentalized, and
loosely coupled. That way, when you do find a flaw
in your first design, you don't have to throw everything
away: some of the code you've already written will easily
work with your new code. (For instance, if you're always
updating a database the same way, and you keep the database
update code well-separated from everything else, you won't
need to make any changes to it when you realize that your
interface code is hopelessly screwed, trash it, and start
over.)
