Obviously part of that business-plan also included not as much time-wasting on 2+2 as well and, instead, making sure that your poker-time is actually productive poker-time.
(the fact that you have been mostly MIA on 2+2 for quite awhile is the evidence here of course).

This is another little aspect of yours that I would be wise to incorporate into my own approach.

I do not post here as I use to be I do read and pickup information to strengthen my game. My Time Management plan calls for/allows for a minimum of 10 hours but no more than 20 per week for improving my game though study of outside sources.

Along with reading posts here I review hand histories, read Card Player as well as Allin Magazines. I include any new books, DVDs, or televised poker events in this category as well.

HHs are a fairly consistant time allotment. When new mags 1st come out I am lucky to get an hour a week viewing posts, less if there is a new book to boot.

The last couple of weeks I have been able to sneak a couple of posts in Other Poker.

Now I may sound a little retentive here but when I discussed my 1st quarter action plan with my better half adding limit 5 Draw was the main new addition. Since there are no good books specific to the game it was decided that the first quarter I would read no books and instead research specific articles plus post on areas to help learn the game.

Sorry if I rambled here but Bob you brought up an interesting example that hammers home the point on turning pro that I do not see in most articles. Planned Time Management is very import imo.
