Yoo!
Another month behind me. Definitely one of the more dynamic months of the last year. There were quite a few reasons for this.
A quick look at what's happening in April:
I intended to play somewhere for 23 days as I had 5 days of holidays reserved. I should be on my way to Ghent, a city in the north of Belgium, on April 15th, because I was planning to go to a 10-hour concert of my favorite DJ. However, I got sick 2 days before that (covid of course, what else). So that was the main “complication” of the month haha.
It's a miserable feeling when you work all day, you try your best everyday, to be able to afford something, and then some "higher power" takes it away from you. Such is Bojlee’s life, I don’t wanna moan too much, specially with all the craziness happening around the world, if my main problem remains in being angry beacuse I can't go on vacation, than so be it. I'm happy and grateful for what I already have and that's freedom and happiness in what I do.
I’m angry just because I really wanted to go to this concert and because I know it will take a couple more years until such an event. But everythin happens with reason (I guess)
Anyway, as far as poker is concerned, I had the best month so far. Regarding the approach and the level at which I played, plus the best month results wise.
I think this month (with the help of the one and only, his greatness, Archangel Michael of course, my coach AtaTheGreat), I came up with a couple of changes in my game, which is crucial for a better winrate and I think that made quite a change in my game.
Also the approach to the game, the focus, the mental game, I think I did great this month plus I ran like a god, which in the end made a good month. I would rate my game a total of 8.8 (1-10) this month.
I think I still have some space but I am extremely pleased with my game this month.
The volume is a bit smaller, because of Covidinho - 19 I was away for a couple of days so I had 20 active days only. The illness itself was quite annoying, not only because of the deprived vacation but also because I was feeling really terrible for 2 days, and after that another 5 days feeling too bad to play, or to play max volume and my A game.
I am now again motivated and ready for the new month.
I started going to the gym (I don’t like it, but it’s a solution for when I only have 45 minutes a day for sports).
I have the same diet as usual, nothing special, I try to eat everything I need, lots of vegetables, fruits (mostly grapes, mostly in liquid form but fruit is fruit
), a little less meat, I eat a lot of eggs, avocado toast (ftw), and a lot of water
And I stopped drinking coffee, so I'm officially no longer an addict. I was without coffee all my life, but then 2 years ago I started drinking it and immediately became addicted.
Now that's over and I'm gonna drink coffee only when I really need it.
Graph for April:
A few words for the month of May:
I won't expect too much, because in the end I'm too disappointed if it doesn't go according to plan (I learned that again this month: D).
All I want and the only thing I’m going to work on is to play my A game every day, or to give my best every day and in poker, and in life in general.
To try to improve everything I do every day by a small percentage.
That I' m grateful every day for what I have and that I continue to do what I do because I enjoy it.
In the middle of the month we are also going with the team to Opatija, for a 4-day "vacation", during the "Slovenian Poker Tour" where we're gonna play 2 live events, small buyin, more for fun, but I'm gonna tryhard to win obviously
This month I also have a couple of birthday celebrations of people close to me, so it’s important that I grind all other days on which I'll be at home.
I'll continue to follow "hope for the best, expect the worst" theory and just try to enjoy everyday like its the last one
Good luck everyone, I hope you are fine! Peace
