When I started driving again recently after a 20 year hiatus I was getting upset when I made mistakes; running stop signs, forgetting indicators, etc.
But then I realised all I was doing was making it hard to concentrate, which could lead to more errors, maybe even a fatal crash.
I quickly adopted this "Oops that was illegal but it's fine" attitude. Notice my mistake, and move on.
It's probably a healthy mindset to be hard on yourself for running stop signs, you're gonna get somebody killed dude
I already had the motivation to drive correctly, getting upset wouldn't improve that motivation, just make driving more difficult.
I pride myself on being a safe and courteous driver. We all make mistakes, especially when learning.
It's only murder if they die.
