-Poker - maybe reduce this to one day a week since you're studying full-time. Are you receiving assistance from the Government? If so, you might be able to drop it all together until semester break. Also, if you're playing high stakes PLO you probably have a decent roll- Could you perhaps dig into your savings rather than spending valuable study time on poker?
-Chess - unless this is a one-off thing, you might want to let this go until semester break. Travelling here and there for tourneys costs time and money. I hate to say it 'cause i love chess but, again, you can get back on it after the semester.
Also, what sort of grades are you aiming for? This will have considerable bearing on the extent to which you ought to reduce the above.
P.S. There's been a lack of reporting on your diet. How's that going? I trust you're avoiding sugar so that you get more done in the latter stages of the day.
Also, do you have a plan for getting up early this semester? Again, it's a way of getting more **** done.
Yea good advice.
Pokego is waste of time - agreed
Poker - I should also take a break if I'm not winning
Chess - Yea, I'm not playing this weekend cuz it's too cold and I'm too behind in everything, I was a pretty high ranked junior player and became a master and wanted to go pro. But the game is too intensive and requires too much work, also the pay isn't good unless ur a top 10 world player. I still have competitive goals in chess tho for personal aims
I study Law which is alot of work atm, I was ding well academically during high school, because back then my family was quite academically focused and they were quite strict, so I did well. But now unrestrained and in uni, ever since chess and poker overtook my life again, grades been getting rekt (I literally don't study anything in the course until 2-3 hours before the finals lol)
My aim is just get back to decent grade and into shape.
