Motivation Now!
Hello everyone!
Greetings from Slovenia! I am starting this challenge to try and motivate myself to finally take this game seriously! I am playing poker for over 6 years now but never had a required discipline to actually succeed. However, I was able to make some extra bucks over the time along with my easy, ok paying "student" job working at the archaeology company doing easy computer tasks. The job is not available anymore so I have two options, to either learn the game and get rid of my bad habits or get a job.
I will be posting my progress playing 6max NL on Microrgaming with a 200€ starting balance. I will use a rather aggro BRM starting at NL10, moving down if I lose 8 stacks. So the first $$$ goal is to get comfortably rolled at NL10 so a little bit of an upswing would be highly appreciated but obviously wont happen
.
More importantly, there are goals necessary to get this thing working:
Tilt - I still get easily tilted and A LOT of work will have to be done here. Hopefully this challenge will keep reminding me not to be results oriented too much for now.
Motivation/work ethics - I have to find a good way of having those but for now, I have to work ONE hour a day on my game, because honestly I wasn't able to keep my own promises regarding working ethics my entire life so I don't want this goal to be too high at the start to push me away.
Party less - Another leak of mine, I've been partying way too much over the years drinking too much so I have to turn more of those weekends into something productive!
Good luck to you all and lets do it!!

. I only play 6 tables right now since I only have one monitor (I threw a mouse into my second one when I was tilting and it died 
) but I'll get a new one on Monday. Playing less tables at the moment and being more focused is probably not a bad idea tho. Another coffee and lets go!
