No Mental Prep

Tried the AOS Essentials test today. Thought I would walk in the garage and do it.

Wrong.

I didn't warm up, just starting doing it. I got almost all the way through the right portion of the test then realized I did one 30 second segments out of sequence...no big deal just kept going.

Then I was starting the left side and my mind was playing tricks on me. I thought I forgot the pressing segment on the right side so I just quit where I was at.

Mental Failure!

I didn't forget the pressing segment.

I didn't prepare mentally for this test. I worried more about the physical and the mental bit me in the ass.

Next time study the test better, practice in segments, get my head together and get it done.
