Re: Anxiety catches up to me.
I was going to say something similar to the pile of chips. Just don't count your chips - it will prevent you from associating a dollar value to them as much. Think of them as just pieces of clay.
It's like playing golf. When you get close to your best score ever, you start playing safe and thinking differently. So there, don't even add the score up exactly. Just focus on one shot at a time (just like the cliche). Keep your focus at the micro -level (golf= this shot, poker = this hand). Add stuff up when your packing up.
