Ah.
I had been assuming that a better method would be to coerce myself into no longer needing to kick myself: this is to tell myself that I erred and hopefully I won't do it again. (It doesn't always work out so well ='/). However, past is past and that's worthy of remembering. Kicking oneself too much for a past mistake (not doing something when one should have -- not having enough self confidence) is not productive.
So perhaps you are correct, and more self-confidence is something I should coerce myself into having.
