I find for me, not everybody, but for me I go in to the session with a plan. Yes I will cut my profit but I protect myself against, well...myself.
So when I was a live cash game player $100nl, I'd bring $300, $200 in my pocket and $100 outside in my car. 
Here was my system:
Buy-in for $100, if I get to $400, that's my last hand and no matter what I make myself go home. I know a lot of people say that's a bad idea and you should play a set time limit and I agree with them, if, and only if, you can not tilt. 
So moving on, if I lost my first buyin, and I played "correctly" I immediately rebuy for another $100. If that gets to $400, same story, I'm out. However, if I go broke again I have the whole walk to the car to figure out if it's worth going back in, or just get into the car and go home. 
So, I'm walking to the car to get my last buy in I brought, now I'm reviewing all the crucial hands I played. 
Answer yourself honesty, did I run bad or play bad. If I ran bad, I'm going back in, if I played bad, no need to burn more money today. Come back tomorrow refreshed and get back to my game.
Now, if I go back, I'm still shooting for that $400 mark, trying to salvage a small profit on the day and not much more.

You don't have to use this system, but I think it's a good idea to create your own system tailored to you, just have a plan before you even sit down at the tables.
Gl, sorry this is so long
