Some of the worst track crashes I've seen were when people went out to ride when it was obvious to them that they weren't feeling it. Personally I cannot ride if I am feeling rushed and find myself benefiting more from taking a break than I would from riding poorly or crashing.

Less is more, especially when doing something that requires focus. If your mind is distracted and filled with clutter then you're never going to feel one of the best feelings there is in life. The flow when you are riding hard and smooth, when you know you can push harder but don't feel the need to at that moment because you're already flying and enjoying yourself.
