Agreed.

I do drills and I work with alignment aids and things like that and I'm very hard on myself when I lose focus or drift back into bad habits. But every now and then - especially if I find myself losing focus - I'll pull out a club or hit a shot I absolutely know I can hit well and I'll hit a few just to remind myself that I DO know what I'm doing and then I go back to what I was working on.

Let's face it, we're all human and even the most disciplined people can't resist the urge to show off a bit and I believe that it's even necessary to an extent. But there's a difference between showing off and ignoring what needs to be worked on and that's where the focus and the knowledge that there's work to be done comes in.
This is the truth. If I have hit a bunch of bad shots with my irons I just grab a hybrid or driver and pipe a couple down the range to remind myself I am not as bad as my iron play right now, but if I go and hit 80 with my hybrid and 10 with my irons, I am not helping to correct my biggest problem.
