Re: Have I overpracticed?

I think you've just mentally taken yourself out of the game.

You don't have enough time to read "The Inner Game of Tennis" by Gallwey (but DO get it and read it).

As an emergency stop gap, just listen to the beautiful sound you are making and concentrate on the vibrations in your fingers as you play and how wonderful that feels!

Pavaroti spoke of how nervous he got before going on stage to the point where he thought he would be completely incapacitated. After hearing the first few notes he sang on stage, ALL of those thoughts melted away and he was perfectly comfortable.
