March-tastic

So march has just began and I am on spring break all this week. I have a few goals for march that I hope to meet. Mostly volume goals. Mixed with results goals. First an update on what I have been up to.

The first couple months of school have gone fairly well. I've attended most of my classes and gotten decent grades. Far better than last semester.

I formed an LLC about 2 months ago. It's purpose is liability protection in real estate investing. I am yet to use it in a real estate deal. But just having it established has caused me to be a lot more proactive about learning real estate and searching for deals. My main real estate goals are to close a lease option deal by my 19th birthday. I won't go into as much detail about this now as I will when something starts coming together. Basically I think if I want to have this done I need more advertising out by the middle-end of March. As of right now I have business cards and a website.

Real estate is a big interest of mine. It's really my main career goal. I think I have come a long ways in learning about it over the past year and hope to go a long ways in executing deals in the next.

On to March's goals. They involve church, poker, health, money, girls, mind.

Goal #1. Attend church at least 2 times.

Goal #2. Play 800 HUsngs. Roughly 26 per day.

Goal #3. Lose > 6 lbs. I want to wake up at <>

Goal #4. Win $3000. Save $500, Spend $500, Tithe $300.

Goal #5. Have sex with a girl

Goal #6. Continue to develop my sound mind. My mental integrity has, over the past year, caused me to excel a lot where others wouldn't. I find myself getting frustrated sometimes at seeing other people get so frustrated about things. I do such a good job of brushing off huge losses at poker or other big negatives in life and it really causes me to have more success. I also do a good job of stimulating myself mentally through reading, music, and talking. So I want to read a book this month, Listen to new music this month, and talk with people who are already where I want to be.

Goal #7. Do 1 thing each day related to Real Estate investing.

Goals, Goals, More Goals...

In my opinion,


To be honest though just one to be discussed, planned, tracked, and accomplished in here for now.
$1k in 10 days. That is $1000 USD in 10 days of playing online poker. Or $100/day.

I just moved to 33s and feel this is pretty doable. Really to have a solid month I need to make about 1000 in 10 days 3x per month. 100 Buyins at $33 won in a month. Isn't a solid month.

I have never set a 1k in 10 days goal and I think accomplishing it is gonna be a key part of me moving to the next level. I am going to try and bullet this out to be a clearly defined, attainable goal.

Tough days

been a tough week and a tough 09 so far. Poker and Life. I am waiting on my financial aid refund to come so that I have money again because I am pretty broke as of now. I get it next friday though so only another week.

I think we are going to hastings tonight for the weekend. I may stay here and grind I haven't decided yet. Kinda depends if my friend Josh is going home from KC. If he doesn't I probably won't. But if he does then I definitely will also.

My results haven't been stupendous. I have been sticking to the right games and playing pretty well. I am really starting to get my confidence back along with that killer instinct I need so much. I am playing a lot more aggressive. I think the key for me is going to be finding the balance between passive and aggressive and figuring out when to mix it up. I am getting into a lot of good spots being aggressive but missing value by betting too much where I should bet thin.
