Get comfortable being uncomfortable. One of the hardest aspects of betting sports is dealing with variance. I know most of you have heard this before BUT to emphasize no matter how sharp how good you are at this craft there will inevitably be bad stretches over an extended sample size reminding you to stay humble and adhere to proper money management.
However there is a positive. Every time you lose a bet it creates an opportunity to learn. It could be about a player, coach, team, market entry, money management etc. So use the loss to make yourself better rather than chasing going on tilt or playing the blame game.
