Trying to reach nl100

Hi Fellas
About me
I'm a 30 years old guy from middle Europe. I started playing poker before the poker boom and could build my roll up to 8k or so.
I played cash game up to NL25 and sng up to 20$. Unfortunately I had gambling and tilting issue and after the busto I stopped playing poker for years.
Now
The end of the last year I decided to start over and deposited 200$ to play on nl2 because I needed to start over. I had outdated resources and tried to refresh my knowledge but I realized the game has changed a lot.
Over the months I eliminated my tilting issue not entirely but instead of full stack all ins and other stupid things I just quit and that's all.
I still need to work on that and continue playing. I played months on nl2-nl5 because I had to learn a lot again and did very fishy moves.
I play on nl16 but sometimes I can find better tables on nl10. I hope nl25 is not so far. I would like to reach nl50 the end of this year but learning and playing well is more important for me than rushing nl50. I don't wanna reveal my SN yet because I'm not OTB or Linus.
I sold my gaming PC because I played a lot and focused less on poker. However sometimes I'm too tired to play or study poker and I have nothing to do, so definitely need a gaming PC
I have been training in the gym for years and regularly analysing my game, watching live play, reviewing sessions, or studying GTO.
My favourite players are Linus, Esfandiari, OTB, and Goose in no particular order.
Here is my graph from January 1. This is the combined result (in BB) of nl5, nl10 and nl16 over 170k hands. If you are interested I can show the updated result at the end of every month.

Never play against Nostradamus!
I decided to jam on the turn because he could have Ax, Qx FD and I'm sure he would call with those hands. Hard to define his range because he doesn't know what a squeeze range look like.
