Tournament Nerves

Ok,we have all been there,the question is how do YOU deal with it.
For myself i can settle down quite quickly after the first initial 10 minutes but its those ten minutes thats the killer.
Archery is a lot like competitive rifle shooting that i used to do,you cant really psyche yourself up because then you are piling the pressure on yourself,on the other hand you cant just have a dont care attitude either or the opposite happens.
So you know the feeling there you are standing next in line to shoot and you get that old feeling of i wish i had taken up chess lol.......what do YOU now, how do you deal with it.
Did you read something in a book,did someone give you a fantastic piece of advice or maybe you have never got over it.
It would be very interesting to hear your views.
