Default Problem adjusting throttle cable

Tried adjusting it today but I can't seem to get it right. The cable has a little play in it, not too tight. The gas pedal inside, if I slightly touch it, it feels like im stepping on the gas harder than I am. So damn hard to drive now, I can't seem to get it right.

The throttle cable is supposed to have 10 - 12 millimeters (0.394 - 0.472 inch) of deflection... That way you don't have to feather the pedal like you do to drive it.
