I'm a recovering perfectionist too. Sometimes I even leave typos nowadays!
Just like learning to ride a bike, or any other skill though, once you have it, you have it, but you probably weren't doing all sorts of tricks the first time you rode a bike. Think of your practice time as the training wheel stage, and the first few days without the training wheels. You're building the skills. It's bound to have some bumps and weaves, but eventually, you will be smooth and it will be like you were always doing this.
