It really is a constant learning process. Keep working - nothing beats experience. Also, take time to watch other refs who you know are considered "good", and watch what they call and don't call, especially if it's at the level you're working.
Good luck.

I agree...Rut nailed it.

Yep, he's right on the money.
One thing: don't fall into the "even up the foul count" trap - that's not your job. If one team has significantly more fouls than the other there's usually a good reason (and usually it's seated in the head coach's chair). It's our job to call the game consistently and fairly according to the rules - if one team can't adjust and fouls more than the other, it's not our job to bail them out.
