Without posts like this, I would've given up SNGs and possibly poker.

I don't play professionally (I have a 9 to 5 office job), but I refuse to play if I'm a losing player. During my first 100+ game downswing, I was bummed out and I could barely get myself to play. I just wasn't finding losing fun. I had people evaluate my play, and they convinced me to stick with it. Since then, I've had ups and downs, but more ups then downs.

I recently got off a heater, and seem to be in another downswing. Now I have a different attitude towards running poorly... I just want to keep playing so that I can start running well again and get back to taking suckers' money.

Stay positive. Keep with it. Constantly try to improve your play.
