Yes. I was told I should attack more on climbs and keep attacking until I went clear. That worked. I lacked the confidence that my accelerations couldn't be matched forever by riders whom I was sure were stronger than I. I think that's a fairly ordinary thing, but I lacked experience in being in the front group. My adviser was also in the front group and was a friend, so I don't know if this really counts.
Edit: I suppose I should specify that this was unasked-for advice.
