If you are doing it in an an unnecessarily complex and convoluted
way, then you are not very good at it. 

It's like technical writing. Creating 20 pages of an unnecessarily
complex and convoluted process does not make you a good technical
writer, even if you get to the results.

Getting to the goal is not the same as being good at getting to the
goal.

NYC just had the marathon. A woman crossed the finish line about 24
hours after she started...the last one in. Yes, she completed it.
That doesn't make her good at it.
