I think I still attribute a lot of my good runs to skill more than the way the cards are going, when when things turn around I start to question my plays more. For a day or two you can't make a wrong decision, people fold to cbets, people 3b you when you raise with your monsters etc, and you think that's how it should be. As soon as all the crap starts coming, I think you just need to accept that that's the way it goes and try not to change too much when your luck changes.
You mentioned getting fancy when you were winning, that's the same kind of idea but at the other end of the spectrum so if you can cut that out too and just try to play the same game irrespective of how things are going, I'll think you'll be better prepared psychologically.
It's certainly something I believe in but havn't quite got my head around yet, since with winning always comes that 'I've learned poker' mindset, and I still get the 'what have I changed' when I drop a few buyins and get into some trickier spots.
Ive definitely had it where I get overly cocky after winning a ton and then I make stupid call downs or really bad 3 barrels cuz I think Im the **** which ends up with me living in suck town again. I think its farealy common for a lot of poker players.
