I was going to go for a long winded answer, but the truth is that B&W is right.

All I shall add is that the more often you fly, the more familiar it will become. Sometimes circuit flying can be a grind, sometimes you feel that the plane is flying you, sometimes the circuit pattern seems awful small and you are back round on another "unstable" approach. These are the times when you may feel like asking to depart the circuit, fly straight and level for a bit, change airspeeds a few times, then make an approach again.
Even experienced pilots need to practice to get familiar with the finer skills. And no two days are ever the same. That's how it is.
We've all been there, and sometimes return!
Oh
Sorry, I went for the long answer.
