Issues with LG, stuck

Elsa2reads

Every time I do a timed LG session for some reason I panic and always end up solving 2 questions, but when I do the BR, it takes me less time to do the questions and it becomes very easy, I make better inferences and understand the material better. I don't know what's causing this, HELP!

Hey,

I just want to say I relate to this. I was listening to the 7sage podcast a few weeks ago and found Sami's advice from the 7sage podcast super helpful.

I understand this. I don't get too bad with anxiety being timed, but I do know that If I hit a wall or find myself brute forcing, I can freeze. This just means I need more practice with that particular pattern or game. That's just me.

Granted, there are some games that can be a time sink. The more I try, even if it's accommodated timing, the faster I get with recognizing those patterns. From there I get a better sense of control with being able to make a choice of continuing or moving on. There's confidence in being able to give yourself that choice.
