It's what all the professional athletes do. They practice until they just don't get it wrong anymore. I don't see why it should be any different for professional poker players.
This is true
but
in poker, what is 'right' is only your own 'subjective' view, not 'objective'
common spots that have been discussed to death can become 'objective', but for most spots, it is 'subjective', making poker so hard to figure out on your own.
group of bright minded poker friends (ex. galfond durr etc) becomes so useful and synergetic because they can discuss theories and spots to make 'subjective' to nearly 'objective'
when I play, DS effect me much more because all my plays are 'subjective' and are up for debate in my own mind. let the endless doubts continue until that upswing.
in conclusion, 'discipline' and 'confidence in your logic' ftw
