Well, it works like this for me:

• Get the project, swear about the time
• Plan the project - curse about the unknown options
• Coding - swear all the time, for better or for worse
• Breaks - go outside and howl obscenities at the stars (you know that nightime is the time when you can create, as opposed to patch)
• Complete the project - swear that "We'll do it differently next time"
