Concur.

When I miss a call, use a poor/wrong mechanic, or think I'm out of position I am disappointed and know I made an error. But, most times no one sees or knows of the mistake but me. When I mention it to my partner(s) many times they didn't catch it or think "it's not as bad as all that." Being critical and wanting to do better is OK. Try to remember, learn, and do better next time. Let it go, and move on.

It's good to strive for perfection. Apparently, you're the only one disappointed in your performance - and that ain't bad!
