A lot of it is running bad causing play bad but thats a pretty lame excuse given that the sequence of run bad causing play bad is something I've gone though before, so I take full responsibility for my mistakes.
No one plays as well when running bad as they do when running average/good, but by now it shouldn't affect me to the degree it has. At first I was happy to be struggling because I felt I was learning new stuff and getting better but lately I've become pretty apathetic/bored towards poker. My motivation, and as a result my volume, has gotten very low.
I would say I'm just discouraged because of some bad results but I haven't been excited about poker pretty much at all this year except in a few tournament runs I made so I think its more than that. Most of my mistakes have come down to me just being bored and not paying close enough attention to play well or making actions without really thinking.
Clearly some adjustments are in order. To succeed in anything I need to be interested, and right now poker is not interesting to me. That doesn't mean it never will be again, just that right now its not.
