Yeah, I first noticed this from music performance. Simply being excited to play with and for people made it much more enjoyable and reduced my playing errors. It applies to public speaking, as well. I came to think of it in terms of the awesome feeling that comes after a good event. I actually like speaking and performing in public these days. I wish I'd known this when I was a kid. It took me until my early 30s to be reasonably awesome in performance situations...I was probably qualitatively a better guitarist when I was 22, because I spent so much more time doing it. But, I'm a more effective performer today.
