  1. It’s actually the other way around for me… I suppose the pressure of winning drives me to work hard. I am crap during practice but during a match I’m very impressive. I suppose the pressure can shut some people down and make them nervous but it pumps me up, I love it :D .

  2. You are one of the lucky few that can raise their game in matches. Your challenge is getting focused enough in practice to improve and grow as fast as your skills and motivation will allow.
