I just started a new big project. Wish me luck. It replaces something held together with duct tape and string concatenation in 5000 line files.

To be fair, you probably do a bit better this time around. Most likely not on most counts, but you probably internalized a few mistakes from last time and improved on those aspects. And come next project, you'll improve on a few more.

You'll do great!
