Too often, we practice just to practice. There are no consequences. There’s no prize.
If you practice well, but you don’t play well, it’s because the stakes are different, so your mental state is different.
The best way to Practice to Win is to put yourself in the same mental state as when you’re competing.
To Practice to Win, you have to put something on it to trick yourself into playing with the same mental state and the same intensity you have during a tournament.
The intensity you have in a match should be the same intensity you practice with.
