To stay sane you have to learn to shoot higher while at the same time be happy with what you have accomplished and where you are. It's not easy. We all struggle with it. A few break out and play much higher, make much more. Most dont.

This is true about life in general, it so true it's sick.
My first chess tourney was in 1973, I picked up a state championship title, a life master title and a fide rating along the way... BUT.... I realized that I really had reached my theoretical ceiling. The fun stops when it takes 10x as much study to improve 2%. Psychologically it's a hard place to live, I've not played in any tourneys since 1996 and the thought of trying to get back into it makes me want to puke.

If it be poker, chess or life we all face it sooner or later. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
