Poker is just another part of your life. If you can't balance it with everything else, I'm not sure what makes you think you'll be able to balance whatever other 'issues' you may run into in your life in order to achieve your grand 'life dream'. But if blaiming your life failures/inadequacies on poker makes things easier to handle for you, then more power to you.

this is an excellent point but very few activities take up so much time. My problem was not playing poker just all the negatives that come with it. For the record I have yet to fail in anything I have ever put my mind to and quitting cards temp. is to ensure that I grad. on time and continue that trend of success.
