I laughed when I read what Xue said, but then it reminded me of something. When I was kickboxing I'd get really nervous when sparring. The ring is basically a stage: THAT idea never helped.
My trainer used to tell me something I thought was strange, but now I understand it. He used to say to me, "your problem is that you're smart. You get in the ring & you start thinking instead of fighting. You're thinkin' of doing x,y, & z. Don't think, just fight. Like the movie "Bull Durham: Don't think, just pitch." I had to learn to relax (a lot), stop thinking & just fight.
Pam, maybe that's an issue for you, too. Especially if your former training said, "if A happens, do B." Try to relax. After all, it's fun:boing1:.
