I kind of expect that the first time I try something new I'm likely to be unskillful and incompetent. Beginner's luck aside, the first time is usually the worst - so it doesn't bother me. I just keep at it till I learn how to do it well, and often keep striving in the hope of excellence.
But when a first worst comes along, that's a shock. It hits hard and takes quite a few weeks or months to fully recover.
