Great find.  Took me a long time of playing to find a better mental balance. I now like to go for a short wander toward square leg.  Clear mind, enjoy the view and just forget the worries of the world.

I used to worry, wave my bat around, practice shots, etc.  Getting a bit zen and enjoying the view has helped lots.  I'm still not great but it has made me better.

This was a great read. Struggled greatly this year with the mental side of things.
