EPT9. ***LACK OF AWARENESS OF BIOLOGICAL NEEDS
This isn't something to strive for, more of a side-effect of being in flow.
This doesn't sound healthy o.o.
But yeah, awesome post <3.

I usually was nervous and even shaking in the first 5mins of the game, I simply couldnt handle it. And I felt exhausted after my games. When I started to focus on getting better instead of winning games I started to enjoy playing this game in laddermatches and I am now able to play 10-20 a day without problem. Now Iam playing with music and Iam able to sing the songs loud while Iam playing, before I couldnt stop thinking about the game and about winning and maybe what my friends think when Iam losing all day long and stuff. 5mins into the game I feel more often then not like Iam in the zone. I knew how it felt to be in the zone from counter strike, soccer, basketball or simply everything I had done to this point but I never was in the zone in starcraft2 before. I simply dont make the mistakes I was doing before. I always knew the rules of the game, like never get supplyblocked or build workers all the time but I wasnt able to do it ingame... now I am and it feels great to play this wonderfull game! | ||

literally 10 minutes ago i played a mtahc agianst a terran player and we traded bases, I had a larger force and i knew i could win, I a-moved my army to were his main force was and while i was focussing on taking out his island expo i didn't notice my army split into "3" not 2, 3 smaller groups and were picked off by my opponent. How would you feel in this situation? | ||

When I'm playing late into the night, my mind isn't dabbling onto other things at all. Just me and the game. My focus is 100% on the game, and I feel really optimistic about the game even if the game in no way at all has a clear winner yet. Then after I'm done playing, my mind won't stop thinking about the game, and I sort of 'act' like I'm playing starcraft, trying to do everything as efficiently as possibile, just stupid little things like throwing something away while simultaneously grabbing something off my desk in a pretty rapid fashion. In contrast, I have games where I'm very focused on the real world, and I make huge stupid mistakes ;( Anyways, I'm no psychologist, but I feel like trying too hard to get into your flow will actually be counter-productive. That's mostly just talking out of my ass but that's what I feel would happen to me personally. | ||

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." -Michael Jordan Why I think win/lose is a crap shoot. Have fun either way, your loses are the games you learn the most from and are what will get you farther. | ||

id like to add, before every game, i do 10 push ups. this isnt because "i want to get muscle while playing starcraft man", its because it makes me feel good. when i am just reading the forums, and feel like playing ladder i wont feel very up, but you know just doing 10 quick push ups for about 10 seconds, it gets my heart beating and i feel great | ||
