Treat it like writing, there is such a thing as a first draft. It’s going to suck, but this is not the draft you put all your edits in. The draft is just a vision for what it should be.
Then, no matter the impulse to leave it alone and mark it as ‘working code’, go back and edit it.
This alleviates the pressure as it’s only your first draft, followed with a discipline to go back and fix your abstractions, organization, and elegance.
