EXACTLY.
I personally am getting very very frustrated because of a not very good job slashing my hours by fifty percent which makes it near impossible to play higher than the most micro of stakes.
When I believed the job would work out, I could play stress free and play a one dollar tourney to learn and tell myself, "every paycheck take 50 to add to bankroll to move up and play 5 - 10 dollar tourneys. Then after a couple more paychecks, move up to ten and fifteen dollar tourneys"
As the job situation worsens, I feel more pressure on me to win instead of learn even though it such a minuscule amount and then bam, I start playing like crap.
