It's hard to keep up the motivation and play as much as I need to these days, well to be honest I have had a problem with being motivated and play as much as I need to for quite some time now. Especially when I have a lot of things to do that interferes with my schedule. I mean I can see myself getting a nice rich life being economically independent if I just put my soul into playing, but I just can't and it bugs me a lot.
I hope this year will be better and that I can do some adjustments in my life that's necessary to keep up with the constant stress a poker player experiences. I'm often a little hesitant when I need to play because I'm always thinking, what if I will loose money this session? Even though I know poker is longterm and single sessions don't mean much when you are looking at the big picture. In the back of my mind I know I'm a winning player and that I will win in the long run, but still I can't seem to be in peace with that thought process. This automatically affects my motivation.
Right now I'm all excited about my trip to Spain and that means I will have to pause my writing for 2 weeks until I get back. I will then write a trip report about how it was there and after that it's all about poker.
