I believe in affirmations.

I keep saying to myself, "Don't make a move until you use the analize feature"

When I make a quick move I usually lose a piece or make a blunder.

I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggawn it, I deserve to win.

I say that 42 times before every game, I make sure to keep my precious bodily fluids well conserved (no fluoridation here, thank you), and I strategically cover all my chakras with crystals and gemstones, to increase my mental chi.

And for the naysayers and skeptics among you, I've barely lost any games in the last few months. QED.
