I'm really struggling to shake off some form of deep rooted tilt with poker at the moment. I've got no discipline in my game, my results are terrible and I've got to the point where I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.
One of the reasons why I think I've got to this point is because I've been doing too much study lately, which has resulted in a bastardised strategy and a disasterous feeling of entitlement. The example I mentioned with the golf swing above really does apply to poker study imo and I think a lot of novice and weak intermediate players like me need to be careful that they aren't trying to learn too much too quickly. More importantly though, it's absolutely imperative for micro stakes players not to assume that everybody knows everything that you do and consequently think in the same way that you do.
Time to take a couple of days off again and return with a clear mind and a more basic approach.
