Like some days I seem to play sloppier than usual and some others I play to my potential, I find it odd and quite annoying, like today my right hand technique is all over the place and my left hand doesn't seem as flexible and as maneuverable as usual I'm playing like crap and it frustrates the hell outta me  . Is this normal? I think this is the 3rd day in a row. |

I know where you're coming from. I think mine generally results from having taken a nap that was too long and my head is cloudy. |

Everyone does.
It's how fast you bounce back, that matters. |
