Message: [QUOTE="N.D., post: 794111, member: 30036"] Have you tried meditation of some sort? I mean if you have 15 to 30 minutes b4 the start of the STT, you could take it to psyche yourself into the game. Pro athletes get pep talks and team prayers before a big game. Why shouldn't you need to get pumped up? Another thought on the matter is to move up levels slowly. I know that's automatic, but maybe if you move up a level as a special treat at first. Tell yourself it's a special treat and a reward to play up a level. Gradually ease your way in. You probably wouldn't dive head first into a frigid body of water right? So why plunge into deeper water than you're used to? Why not just dip your toe in at first, then wade a bit, then finally swim? I probably mixed a whole bunch of metaphors there, but hopefully I make some sense. [/QUOTE]
