Will be cheering for you on the rail vonki. Tough times in life come and go, but the important part is to embrace them as part of a growing experience in general. Looking forward to see some of your hands, and how the side challenge goes with it. I'm pretty sure you can conquer whatever you believe in.

Following this blog for sure.

I'm being sneaky =D

I've never actually written anywhere "my skype alias is X" because I know the rules. I generally just so happen to mention in passing that my skype alias is identical to my pokerstrategy.com alias. When you think about it, that's just fun trivia. I wouldn't dream of typing out my skype alias in full.

PS, are you trying to get me in trouble?? :coolface:

The Dawn of a new era

2014 was one of the toughest years of my life. Life gave me tons of ups and downs, on many levels. Friendships were lost, people moving on to the afterlife... I struggled alot with being away from my family and hometown. Heck, home country for that matter. Poker felt very mehh, I had lost all my passion for the game and I avioded playing for as much as I could. For the better part of the year, I struggled and just tried to hang on from one day to another, hoping that brighter times would follow. I felt defeated and did'nt really know what to do with my life.

But more importantly, especially the latter part of 2014 also brought light back into my life. I am super blessed to have amazing peers in my life, helping and supporting me through the toughest of times. The brighter times did come! And just like that, everything changed. Old friendships were rekindled, and new friends were made. Opportunitys arising and plans spinning forward. The passion and motivation for poker is back. Possibly stronger than ever. I know where I want to take my future, and I already made plans how to get there. I don't feel defeated, on the contrary I feel I am about to enter the high of my life! 2015 is lining up to be the best year in a while, and better yet if everything succeeds as planned, the years beyond hold even more promise!

For now, I can't and don't want to go too much into detail. But I am SO excited for 2015 and I hope you guys are too! :f_thumbsup: I'll share some of my goals here, but not all. Perhaps at the end of the year, I will reveal some more.

Poker

:spade: Always play a minimum of 50.000 hands/month
:spade: Be a winning player at NL100 pre rakeback
:spade: Have a >$10.000 bankroll
:spade: Supernova on Pokerstars
:spade: Improve my productivity and mindset
:spade: Complete my NL2-NL50 side challenge
:spade: Get more involved in coaching & helping others

Other

:spade: Start investing in P2P lending as experiment
:spade: Find other assets & make an assets portfolio
:spade: Finally start going to the gym ( :f_biggrin: )

Nothing too complicated. 2015 is off to a good start, and every day I wake up with an excited feeling eager to get back to work (well ok, thats a lie.. the feeling comes after a cup or two of coffee, before that I feel pretty dead :f_biggrin: ) . Let's make this an amazing year! :f_drink:

xoxo :heart:

That is a great post - well fought back and good luck in 2015.

Hahah no no I know you were being sneaky!!! Which is why I were too. I thought it was awesome and tried it myself... I didnt write out my skype addy, I just wrote to add en "e" between the... well I better not repeat where since I am aparantly not allowed to anyway :f_biggrin: not at all meant to get you in trouble, just admiration really :f_love:

Thanks for your wellwishes :f_love: I wasn't, didn't had that much time for poker, and even left Facebook and social media in general aswell.

I've been monitoring your challenge too, don't worry, but don't think I'll be that active replying there. Started my blog too, and I'm safe to say that those hours you invested in me back in the past were oh so positive. Feel free to follow the story as you may.

Looking forward to the updates. :f_drink:

How mister Rocky once said: "It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." :fuckyeah:

Good luck with the goals, you seem to have a great mindset for it!
