    just wondering how some of u grinders out there put in so much volume (from a motivational standpoint)? clearly its pertinent if you take the game seriously in hopes of improving but grinding enough mtts or sngs or whatever u play can take it toll and burn anyone out. and thats not to say u cant keep motivating yourself to keep working for those bigger scores. just curious as to what motivates u or keeps u goin when you're like "i dont feel like playing today."

    i think alot of ppl have felt this way from time to time. thoughts?

    have/had the same problem. However, I do understand the burning out point of view.

    I now manage to take days off without problems and start enjoying them... Grind and keep on grinding when you have the motivation but at one point you'll think to yourself, why am I grinding and then the real/good life starts :)
