why is it, that i seem to get lost so often?

I feel like i seem to fuck everything up when i try to change something. So if I'm doing something one way, and then im told to try it another way since the way im doing it isn't very good, then i try it that other way and i just screw everything up. Its strange though, because it doesn't seem like life is overwhelming right now, its just my emotions. But i dont know what that means. I wish there was somewhere i could go for the answers, even though i know that the only place ill probably get them is from within myself. i just hope that i dont screw things up too much before i can actually get to the answers.
