I am getting smashed

The last few times I have been to a rolling class, I have been tapping like it is a bodily function.  During one 10 min. roll with a brown belt, I bet I tapped at least 6 times.  At the end of one session, I looked around, and everyone in the room had made me tap.  I even tapped to a couple of palate chokes, I had never been choked like that before.

I will be the first to admit that my training attendance is not as regular as it should be.  I try to get to BJJ at least 2 times per week, and try to make a rolling class at least every other week.  Most of the guys that train at the gym are there much more than that.  That being said, my rolling lately has not been good, and I have been getting beat more than I used to.  It feels like I am getting worse.   It is incredibly humbling, and a bit frustrating.  So, I have decided to address it, and come up with a plan to change it.

1. Try to get to class more, try to roll more.
2. I am not as good at defending chokes and submissions as I used to be, I need to focus on defending myself better, protect myself.
3. Accept the losses as learning, try not to get frustrated. ( much easier said than done)
4. Daily work outs – I need to accept the fact that I need to work out daily away from class, calisthenics, some cardio and physical training.  These younger guys are in way better shape than I am.

I know it was a while ago, and a different martial art, but I used to be one of the top guys in the room.  My ego is having a hard time getting past that.  

Have you experience a similar wall or set back to your training?  How did you address it?
