That's one way to put it, sure. It's the same in that it'll probably take a lot of repetition and patience before you'll see any results, but it'll be worth it.
( It sounds annoying, to the instinctive, immature part of herself. The part that likes to say everything is fine and ignore the bigger issues.
But that response isn't normal. And god only knows that she's used to spending hours on things that seem a toil. It's how she even came to this career path in the first place. )

[At least she's not alone; he tends to feel the same way.]
Most of the methods and tricks are pretty simple, at least, although they're easier said than done.
[And, to illustrate that point--]
The most useful one is to recognize when you're feeling competitive, take a moment to figure out why, and then also determine what the realistic worst case scenario is for if you don't end up being the best. This makes you stop and break the pattern, provided you can both remember to do so and force yourself to actually do it.
