This happens to me especially on boulder problems. When I really want to send but keep failing on tricky sections it's often because part of my mind is focused on the rest of the moves rather than the move at hand. When I give up trying to send then I can relax and focus just on the move at hand.
Most of my hardest sends (ok not that hard for you strong climbers) have come directly after saying "I don't know if I'll ever get this problem". The top outs on these are usually not very smooth because I'm so surprised to have gotten through the sequence that I forget the beta. Climbing is funny stuff. :-)
