Rizen, what is best in life?

I started reading Rizen's blog several months ago when I saw it listed in a thread on 2+2. Great writing by a great player!

I think the answer is 'pretty damn good'. What I'm wondering is WHY is he so good. What is he doing differently than all the other good players here? The two things I can come up with:
1. Focus. I've never seen him post a hand history with the usual "No reads because I was browsing porn" type stuff that a lot of people do.
2. Self feedback. It seems like he's better than almost anyone at setting goals, deciding what steps to take to achieve them, and then having the discipline to constantly assess whether he's been following those steps strictly or deviated at all from them.
Anybody else able to come up with anything?

Me too. A few days ago I was thinking about "who are some people I really admire". The first two I thought of were Rizen and Angelina Jolie. Seriously.

Did any of us doubt he'd do amazing things at the WSOP?

This seriously defies all logic. You are the man, keep it up.
