I haven't played poker in about a week, because I've finally realized that I need to take care of things in my life first, since it is distracting my optimal poker playing. What I've decided to do is first get rid of the sleep debt that i've accumulated brought about by my poor sleeping habits, and insomnia. I also want to fully catch up with my school work without any procrasination, and to exercise daily. It sounds simple enough but its something that if I handle I know I'll be so satisfied. I've also noticed that when I'm on top of other areas of my life while playing poker, I am generally more focused, and really enjoy it.

-Exercise daily to increase my general well being and energy, which helps me with my other goals
-Take care of homework and studies as soon as I can, no delaying.
-Start sleeping earlier, and get rid of all my sleep debt.
=Play poker in a better frame of mind

Also recently I purchased two books online called Flow, and Creativity by the same author. I am really excited to read them. If you know anything about Flow you'll understand why.

So what I'm pretty much looking for is to balance my life a bit more, and stop being so foolhardy with thinking I can just mass poker. Maybe one day I'll be able to, but I need to learn how to manage myself better and build my discipline before I can do it effectively (like some of you sickos can).
