What kind of things can I learn from games like this?

I speak from experience here, because I've had this problem too. You get to a point where nothing feels right, and you spend three days after the game second and third and fourth guessing every call and no-call. What you need to learn is how to augment the voices that are good for you to hear, and minimize everything else. How you do that depends on you. Some people use memorized affirmations, some hold imaginary conversations in their heads with a mentor or other friend. One thing that's helped me a little is to tape a game. If you know while the game is going on that you can look at it later, it makes it easier to dismiss the whiners. Figure out what will work best for you, and then do it.
