You know that time when you are trying to do good in a task or project or job and then you feel like you have to give up everything and all the things that make up who you are: your normal personality and behavior, your fun activities, etc. etc. etc. in order to "feel" like you are prepared or will do the job well. Well I hate that feeling, I am beginning to see how ridiculous it all is.

What is wrong with making mistakes and learning from them? What is wrong with being yourself and having some fun on-the-job?

I guess I don't know, it's this weird "how the human mind works or how emotions can control us" crap. I guess we just have to learn how to overcome them. I just really hate that feeling, it bugs me.
