I love the story of the little girl's fear and wanting to do it anyway, and how you described her pride in what she did - and yes, I recognise that internal voice myself! I've been coming up against a lot of moments where fear and "for heaven's sake JUST DO IT!!!" face off with each other, and generally the satisfaction is all the greater when I do overcome the fear - if I can do THAT, I can do ANYTHING! It's a real lesson in gaining the confidence from taking action, rather than waiting for it to work the other way around.
