Default Learning to play better when losing.

So I went on a very bad run. Stepped right down in limits. My roll is currently super healthy for the limits Im playing. Im waaaaaay overrolled, but I'm happy to grind it out for a bit, probably until the end of the year. since I started after my bad run, about 10 days ago, I've played very well. I've also run very well. I havent really tilted. However, I just had a bad session. It wasnt even terrible. Just very frustrating HU, not hitting any hands, running into quite a few hands, getting some bad beats etc.

Anyway, Im playing at a level where I am super fine broll wise. So today I prolly lost about 1% of my roll and started tilted. It was nothing hardcore. I lost about another 1% of my roll or so, and was playing +EV poker during that time, but less EV than if I wasnt tilting. ANyway, eventually I stopped playing, despite playing a very bad player HU, cos I was just too frustrated.

This had hindered me, and will continue to hinder me. If I could play as well when losing than when winning, I would/will be a lot richer, and I'd like to achieve that.

Looking for practical steps.
