I agree with all Tom has stated, but to add a bit more(I didn't see mention of this), after cleaning the tip well I will dab just a touch of solder to the right before touching the joint to establish a "bridge." This helps the transfer of heat quickly to the joint so that you're not applying heat too long to that high quality but fragile circuit board. Too much heat for too long is a disaster to any pcb.
