'Remember, your focus is your reality' - George Lucas.
There's one thing in common with mediocre grinders, they drift through day-to-day playing 16 tables for 8 hours and eek out a living. They don't adapt much and they don't change. These players get so comfortable in their own style of play that they fail to adapt and exploit the playing style of their opponents.

Here's some real tips you can implement today to stay focused:
- Leave yourself post-it notes to remind you to focus when you feel yourself 'drifting' through a session.
- The focus technique: Force yourself to focus on one thing - observing players actions and make notes. The first time you try this you'll drift out of focus quite quickly, but keep pulling yourself back in to a state of focus. After pulling yourself back in to focus 50 times in one session it'll soon become second nature. This technique is similar to a boxer raising his hands to his chin when his hands drop to remind himself to defend.
- Keep zoned in and remove distractions. Do you ever reach the end of a day and wonder if you've really accomplished anything that day? Most likely you're susceptible to distractions and procrastinations. The most successful people throughout history have been headstrong men, able to focus in on what's importnat. It's impossible to fully focus on many things at once. In an age of social media, instant news, alerts and distractions sometimes it's difficult to focus on what matters. Try to keep in the zone and block out any distractions - You're going to have to focus purely on playing this best poker you can if you really want to succeed.

Ego got in the way and the players couldn't face the thought of admitting that they were no longer good enough or didn't have the required skills to beat the ever evolving online poker games.
