seem to have a bad habit of these searching scratchy line. I guess i can rub them out and clean them up but in some instances when fixing a mistake or trying to adjust proportions i end up adding more lines which makes cleaning up a bit harder. 

Is this just me not being confident or perhaps  need to slow down a little?

this describes perfectly where i am. I see amazing artist like mark mattesi, kim jing gi and ramon90 and i always wonder why they construct the way the do. Ur right in saying that humans have much more complexity in the little details that we can distinguish as well as the larger details. i think thats where i come up short , im too focused on making it accurate to the reference or to how a human should look i sacrifice my willingness to let go of those details. 

I will experiment as you have said and try to tell my brain "hey look at the bigger picture" so i can let go of those tiny details in the beginning and find the gestural flow and shape of the pose or action. Finding a balance between being more free flowy but keeping the structure correct. And there's the other side of me who loves using shape language as well and balancing that with flowy lines and correct structure lol.

Thank you for your advice

whenever i draw animals i can find the gestural shapes and flow of the animal. It's very much c curves and tappered strokes. The momment i draw figures i don't know why its so stiff. I can't seem to apply the same way of drawing animals to figures, finding the overall flow, not getting blinded by small shapes, then i end up getting incorrect proportions because of it. No idea what to do any help.
