“The problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them.” Einstein
I know this may sound harsh, but there’s a reason why you’re training hard right now… you’re not good enough as you are to reach your ultimate goals.
Most of us aren’t. There’s always room to improve, so I congratulate for taking the necessary steps (that 99% of players will never do) to improve your game. And always remember, while you’re training and getting better, those players who aren’t are just getting worse which puts you in an even better situation.
