I think not.
If you have the impulse to go fast, think about prototyping whatever it is you are trying to do, if you can. You should agree with yourself to dispose of the prototype completely. By the time you've gone through debugging the prototype you'll know much of what is needed to do the real thing.
Obviously, this doesn't always work. In those cases, whiteboards, pen and paper, even a text document can help.
