Doing It “Right”

I have always been of the opinion that doing a task the correct way the first time is the best way to complete the task. I don't mean to imply that there is one correct way of completing a task, only that doing it correctly does not involve cutting corners or using hacks to complete the task.  I have always preached this ideal as a developer, never the decision maker.  Now, I am currently working on a project with a few colleagues of mine where I am a decision maker.  Earlier today I began wondering whether my ideals will change as this project grows.
