My most reliable opener: the chewing gum opener

There's an underlying principle here which I think can help many guys: the reset switch.

I've touched on this in the OP, but I think it would be worth stressing.

In fighting, coaches often tell their fighters to reset their stances. This usually happens after an exchange of blows or intense movement.

When gaming girls, like in fighting, it's easy to allow negative experiences from the past to influence the future. Instead of dropping your hands, losing body alignment or mental focus, like a fighter, a player will lose confidence, lower his voice, project less energy.

Going back to their regular stance is the fighters reset button. It doesn't matter if he lost the previous exchange or his opponent won the last battle for position.

When the fighter resets, all that matters is what will happen from then on. Positionally, it's as if the fight had just started all over again. This "letting go of the past" has a deep psychological effect.

The chewing gum opener is MY reset. It allows me to let go of previous failures during the night, or to leave my bad mood behind and start fresh. I know I can count on it.

Maybe the chewing gum opener won't work for you, but if you can develop your own opener or an attitude that allows to go from a negative or neutral state of mind to a positive one, this is invaluable. A night that could be called early might still give you a few more shots before you finally decide to quit.

Growth comes from pushing through when you want to quit, and having a reset is a great tool in doing that.

This is brilliant stuff. Everything behavioral benefits from a "ready position" and/or from fundamental primitives you can trust yourself to execute without having to think or tune your confidence, and those mind-muscle connections just reinforce clearing the emotional tank and starting fresh.
