This raises a question - how do you make yourself relax enough prior to a
major contest in order to do take a nap ?
Prior to a big contest I'm constantly churning through thoughts on what to
do, did I forget anything, what band to be on, etc. etc. etc. and cannot
relax.
How do you single-op experts do this ?
