goals for 09

So I've never been one to really write or blog but i figured if i did this it would help with reaching my goals, plus i remember reading somewhere its not a goal until its on paper (guess this is the same thing). Before i get the goals i think it would be good to share a little about me so when i am playing on rail heaven people will know my back round. I am 24 years old and live in the Sacramento area of California. I have been playing poker for about 4-6 years never anything serious but decided 09 would be a good time to change that. I mostly play low stakes online and 200nl live. Ive had some good success in the past but have always had to withdrawal for family things and have had my account hacked twice before draining my whole roll. i haven't deposited since the beginning of 08 and hope to keep it that way. I have a little girl that will be born any day now that ill have to devote my life to so i figured if i can get this damn poker thing going finally i can stay home and spend more time with her. (Plus i hear daycare is a bitch to pay for these days) anyways so that's a little about me on to my goals
goal 1. play on average 30k to 50k hands per month
-i work full time so to hit this goal i plan on playing at least 1k+ hands on work days and 3k+ hands on non work days so this should be easy

goal 2. be playing 100nl by April
- i currently am playing 25nl and am at 1050$ for my roll i have had good results at this level in the past and think moving up shouldn't be a real problem. i have taken shots at the higher levels in the past just seem to run like shit when i do but am confident i can play well at them

goal 3. learn to critique my game and plug my own leaks
- i plan on getting a coach once my roll is a little higher and plan on starting to utilize my poker tracker vs. just seeing how much i win and lose

goal 4. (big goal) being playing and beating 400nl by 2010
play my ass off and constantly get better by doing all of the above.

OK thats it i plan on continuing to update this every so often so if u want to follow me or come tell me i suck for 2 outing you go for it

my online name is liopleurodon on ftp so look for me if you want and stop by and say hi.
p.s. anyone looking for a motivated student who has a semi-solid thinking on the game just not the roll to go with it and wants to coach for ssnl and ss Omaha shoot me a pm or aim me at getstupidub
laters and hope 09 treats ya good.
