Ever felt like you did something wrong when you had to significantly improve your software?

I certainly did.

We had built a first version of the product. It solved our customers' problems. It created a business. It was paying our salaries and our bills.

The feeling was wrong, not our work!

The software was a success. Success changed perspective.

We learned the business. We gained users, feedback, and experience. This led to new requirements — both functional and non-functional.

Fortunately, we were able to build on our success.

But to stay successful, we had to change the software.

And you may need to as well. This is true iterative-incremental development.
