BLIND SPOTS

It is quite amazing I have been doing it rough the last few days, not to mention the last few months but when I am in a negative cycle it is amazing how it manifests in my chess games.

I seem to develop the most amazing blind spots, I move pieces into obvious lines of danger and just loose important pieces without even seeing the threat.

It stems from a defence mechanism where my natural instincts are to avoid any contradictory evidence from my initial assessment, I suppose it is my subconscious avoiding embarrassing me.

In chess and the markets there is no place to avoid embarrassments one needs to constantly reassess ones initial assessment.
