Study time vs Playing time

[Big Bend]

When I first started playing poker several years ago, I read a ton of books, participated in the strategy forums, analyzed my hands, watched cardrunner vids.

These days all I want to do is play. I've got like 6 new books just sitting here waiting to be read, I watch maybe 1 CR vid a week, and never get around to posting hands and stuff.

I really need to be studying more too... but can't seem to motivate myself. I started a new job which is occupying more of my time. And I've recently started enjoying PLO which is great fun, quite addictive.

So any suggestions on fighting thru all these distractions and forcing myself to study more? I know my game would certainly improve if I did.

Thx.. BB
