The memory part responsible for thinking (declarative memory) is not the part that did all the practising (procedural memory), and gets in the way. It's like your mother-in-law on the passenger seat, complaining.
But that's a sign of mistrust. You have to trust your procedural memory to do its job without supervision, and let go. Practising is for building that trust.
