If there's a pickle in your pocket it is probably tuesday 

A phrase from a popular story where a flute player practices too much and ends up hating the thing she loves. After being given a pickle that "gets rid of problems" she attempts to play for the king and her flute disappears. Meaning her problem became her flute. This concert happened to be on a Tuesday in the story. This is used to say do not lose the enjoyment of doing something by doing it too much.

Friend 1: I just can't seem to wanna play this game anymore, I just get too stressed and always wanna win.
Friend 2: Well, they always say 'if there's a pickle in your pocket it is probably tuesday'. You should probably just play for fun before it ruins your love for playing.
