You overestimate what you can do and underestimate what you need to learn. Your idea isn't the problem. You are. Build the skills first, then try.

You see other people, you know you're as good as they are, but maybe they have more skills that you can't see. And then you go out and try it and you fall on your face. This is hard. It's hard to hunt, climb a tiger. So the idea is, if you're not successful right now, get better, improve, develop some skills.
