When you start driving, you never avoid the first pothole.
It’s new to you, unexpected and if you’re driving alone, you might get pissed that you hit it. If you’re driving with others, you’ve gotta deal with their feedback, too.
Fortunately, that’s just the first pothole. After that, it’s pretty rare that you’ll hit a second. You know to allow yourself enough reaction time, to look for it and you don’t want others critiquing your skills again. You’ll show them.
The same can be said for the first curb you ride over, the first yellow light you see if you can make it through, the first parallel park job, the first steep hill you have to break in the middle of, the first time you try to pass another vehicle that’s not going as slow as you thought …
It’s pretty clear we get better as drivers when we have more firsts and when we learn from them.
Same can be said for any act, really.
