3,790—but I’m feeling much more optimistic than I was. I feel like I’m playing better, like I’m thinking better, like I’m being less reactive and more proactive in the choices I’m making. Now that the time pressure is lifted, the brain fog that came in its wake lifts as well. I have the room to think—and have been given the permission, first by Jared and then, through repetition, by myself, to do so.
