Imagine playing a game of chess. Ideally you want to progress to the next stage when you feel ready. So you'd move on to middle-game tactics after you feel you've implemented a strong (dominating) early game opening. In the middle game and endgame, you are very confident of winning because you had such a strong opening. Your pieces are in a great position to achieve victory.
If you aren't confident you're winning the game, stay in the early game stage until you feel pretty confident. Keep moving your pieces around until you feel they're in the right position. You don't have to be 100%, but you feel strong enough that you'd bet money that you'll win.
