Concentration

Since earlish November last year, I have had a grand total of 4 "proper" games of Go - one just a short time ago on KGS and 3 on Wednesday. The main problem is that I'm not concentrating enough for the duration of the game - just making stupid mistakes (going with first impression instead of trying to avoid traps) towards the ends of the game. A bit more mental discipline required? Due to the loss of the KGS game and my absence of playing there (and the gradual decline in ranks due to not playing), I'm listed with a rank of 17k?. Should be 5k (or a bit more?) better...

Holidays are great for making me relaxed!
