We learn from every mistake, at least!
What I've started to do before I even pull my tent out of its bag is stretch the ground cloth over the area I want to pitch my tent. Then I lay down on it to test the area for levelness, sticks, rocks, etc. If it's not quite right, I'll move it over a foot or two and test again.
