holy shit, I had to get up at 7:30 (in the morning!!!). Obv still grinded and last night so only got about 3-4 hours of sleep. I even played NLHE HU CG and it was so much fun and so easy (well OK, I played a rly bad plr ♦), busted his account 
However, the good thing about getting up so early is you can get quite some things done 
I worked 6 hours straight on different projects and everything worked out as expected. Good meetings all in all.
Not only did I put in hours for business ventures that will likely make me a lot of money in the longrun, I also worked on our "probably-not-yielding-much-of-a-$-profit-but-potentially-giving-us-incredible-fame-social-project (aka TT & JB poker book project) for two hours (can you believe that JB?!). Re-read it (JB is a pro, it reads rly well imo), edited some parts I've written and I even (eat this JB!) wrote two more pages! And on top of that, I already made some notes about things I will write on the plane to London on Sunday. Can you believe that Prof? Now you only have to rungood for 50k hands in early 2012 and we are gooooood
@ arnolde, mark and whoever read the discussions yesterday in our skype channel about motivation and goals. here in short my view on the part about goals:
I have an ambivalent opinion on goal setting. I do agree that setting goals gives us structure and something to look forward to. At university we learn that goals should be SMART. Under this definition, goals should be Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-sensitive. I think it’s a good starting point, but not more than that simply because any goal – no matter how you define or describe it – is a limitation in itself.
The word is an Oxymoron itself is. I can only set goals for things I know, or can measure/define. However, why do I want to limit myself to things I already know? I don’t want to set a goal X when in fact I would be able to reach Y. Just the moment of formulating the goal, I have no idea about the possibility of reaching Y, maybe not even of its existence.
I agree, having some sub-goals or milestones on the way, helps to make sure we are on the right path. However, I don’t want to set / limit myself to specific goals. I rather say I want to do everything I can as best as I potentially am capable of to come closer to my visions. Those visions are definitely not measurable or specific, but at least I am not limiting myself. I don’t want to reach a certain limit in Poker. I don’t want to found a certain number of companies and I don’t want to make x$ of profits per year with whatever I do. I also don’t want to be happy as how I define happiness today because I am sure there is something out there I don’t even know of by now which potentially can make me even happier than I can think of. The only thing I want to make sure is that I do what I do as best as I can, while not ignoring principles of life, being open minded to new and self critical about everything.
Speaking of books, I plan on picking up a few books soon any recommendations?I remember in the party poker coaching you mentioned fooled by randomness any others that spring to mind?Can never have too much reading material for the john
