Unfortunately, there is nothing about any conditional relationships between the steps.
So it could as well go like this:
  1. Come up with new idea:
    Ok, I did some quick thinking and I just got my best idea ever!
    GOTO next step.
  2. Convince people it's good:
    Ok, I tried. Some are convinced. Some are not. Most have no idea what I'm talking about.
    GOTO next step.
  3. Check whether it works:
    Ok, I checked. It doesn't.
    GOTO next step.
  4. New idea is adopted:
    Yes, finally!
    Wait, what was this??
