I get what you mean. Yet it feels wrong to accomplish something in my slow, average way and actually be proud of it, when there are people out there doing better, faster who would find what I did easy and boring.
There are loads of ways I'd like to improve, I just expect to fail at them.

It is hard sometimes to go out and start a new project. But why do you have to criticize yourself so much? Why not do something for different reasons? For fun, to feel companionship, do something for others or with others just for the sake of it? for example.
Thinking about and evaluating everything is unnerving, and it disconnects and blocks us.
Making mistakes is painful, but it is the only way to learn. There is nothing bad about not being good at something, and if you keep trying and see the result, it is a true experience of success.
I guess you have to take the risk, otherwise you stay stuck in your head and it goes nowhere. What option do you find more attractive?
