Yes: and I recommend taking that attitude BEFORE each call. My remark about letting it go applies AFTER you've made the call.
That's a weird thing about umpiring: we invest each call with great significance and focus our attention intently on it; then we have to let it go and move on to the next call, so that we get that one perfect, too.
