Another way of putting this is the old adage that "A superior pilot is one who uses his superior experience to avoid getting into a situation that might require his superior skill to get out of that situation"
The inexperienced pilot though gets into these situations and does NOT have the experience and skill to get out of that situation without luck on his side (after which, if he gets away with it, he has a bit more experience under his belt to enable him to progress towards being a superior pilot!)
