Just reading Jared Tendler's thread is making me nervous because there are so many people in the thread that have similar problems to mine. Having to realize that I have emotional control issues is like a hit to my self-confidence because it's nice to say "I never tilt" or something even when it's not really true. I think a big part of it is to realize that emotions influence not only your game, but how long you play, if you play every day, etc. At this point I wish I could just go on "chase my losses" tilt and put in like 8 hours. But in reality I think I should think of my money as an investment, like stock instead of real money. My earn should not be monthly where I can post graph in a thread or something, but I should think of my graph as a stock where it goes up and down, but mostly up. So I should only consider my earnings at the end of the year. If it's not real money I am more emotionally detached from it.
