Hi Codeforces,

I once again ask for your support

Here is my story before coming to question:

As you can see in my graph that my rating was increasing slowly and steadily and I was very happy with that but at the same time the pressure was building up that if I messed up any one of three problems I solve in the contest my rating is gonna fall. And in the last contest, this finally happened. I messed up on 1627A - Not Shading (yup at the very start) where instead of reading the statement properly I directly jumped on implementation. And implement something completely different (also a bit difficult) which took me about 35 minutes (Yes, I know even in that 35 mins I didn't realize my mistake). After realizing my mistake I started panicking and took another 10 mins to implement problem A. At this point, I was about 1 hour into the contest and haven't submitted a single solution but still decided to submit my solution A and officially participated in the contest (I don't know why). As I was about 7K below my usual rank my brain overloaded and fu*ked me over completely. I was not able to solve 1627B - Not Sitting or 1627C - Not Assigning and got completely annihilated in the contest. Now after the contest I was able to solve both of them easily (I mean equal to the amount of effort it takes me usually).

So, How you guys able to overcome this pressure and continuously perform equal to your level?

I also wanted to my story because I don't have friends who are interested in CP.
