See it this way: Your text has problems, if you know them or not. Even the greatest master of the craft will not be able to write a text right out of the box without any problems. Since you know up front that your text has problems, the worst thing that could happen is that you don't find them. And the best that can happen to you is that you find them.

Therefore when you find a problem, don't feel negative about the problem existing, feel positive about having found it and now being able to correct it. Finding a problem means success. Finding many problems means many successes. So you've got an endless spiral of successes!
