Q: I try to use the "make something bad" technique very frequently, since I can see its merit, but every time I find myself wanting to put in effort because something sounds kinda cool for a second. however, this just sticks me back at square one because then I'm """trying""" when I'm supposed to be using the not trying trick. I hope you see what I mean there. in short: when using the "make it bad" trick, how can I overcome the need to make it good?
A: if you say it starts sounding good for a moment, that means the trick is working, in that moment. however, that also immediately makes it stop working, so you have to keep re-setting the trick
