2 Million Dollar Bills

It’s another miserable day in London, the rain is lashing down, it’s kinda depressing. I haven’t played poker for over a month. I have recently moved to London as a stopgap, before I immigrate to the Caribbean. As a result of this I haven’t had the time to play poker, when I play poker I like to be relaxed and my mind needs to be clear,  unfortunately that  hasn’t been the case since I got to London. But now is the time to get back on track with the my poker, Texas Hold em to be precise, with an occasional game of Omaha, when the mood takes me. I feel I have finally got used to the mad and hectic world, which is London, my mind has acclimatized to this crazy city.

I have decided to stick to playing Tournaments with a top prize of over £2,000, with a goal of obviously winning one in the near future. My best result so far was winning a 90-person tournament where I won around $450, but that was in the distant past. I feel I now have reached the stage where I need to aim for bigger prize money to motivate me and to make it worthwhile.

My goal is a simple one I want to make a cool million dollars from playing online poker; I know it can be done, because there are  countless young kids out there have already done it. Am I aiming too high, is my dream too much of a fantasy, is my poker playing skills at a level where I can compete with these young kids? Time will tell!

Before I begin playing poker I like to have my environment nice and tidy, this helps to unclutter my mind; I then prepare myself mentally for the battle that lies ahead. I have a nice relaxing bath, I get focussed, I remind myself to play tight and aggressive from the start, not to let myself get suckered into doing something I shouldn’t, such as trying to bluff with nothing, at the wrong time, and going all in and hoping I don’t get called, sometimes you don’t, but more often than not, you do!

I also like to have some supplies with me, to help keep me focussed, like any good poker player I stay away from alcohol; my snacks of choice are a large bag of Jelly Babies and 3 cans of Nutrament Energy & Protein Drink. It is a huge mistake to move away from the poker game, until its break time. I have done it in the past and learned from the mistake, it can mean the difference between winning some prize money and getting nothing.

I’m ready, focussed and prepared to start back on the online poker dream and I’m aiming high, a Million Dollars is in my mind.

I will be doing a follow up article later today, where I will be sharing the secrets of my poker success in the tournaments which I play in today on Tues 3rd of June.

I have worked hard all morning from about 6am, on varies projects, which are part of my 2 million dollar goal. It was a reasonable nice day, well I mean by Aberdeen standards it was almost as good as it gets for this time of the year. The sun was shining and it was only slightly cold, which was good enough motivation for me to head down to the beach for a bit of rest and relaxation. 

 I find if I take an hour or two out and recharge my batteries, I come back feeling refreshed and things just seem to flow better. I headed into the local supermarket for some refreshments which I would enjoy as I watched and listened to the waves hitting the shoreline.

 All I can say is that I came across a bottle of French Sparkling Cloudy Lemonade, made by a company called Le Marche François, this stuff was absolutely amazing. The French don’t just make some of the best wines in the world; there Cloudy Lemonade is the business too.

 After an hour of relaxation and lemonade drinking I was ready to get back to work to continue developing my ideas, which will help me to make 2 million dollars.

 The French Sparkling Cloudy Lemonade and bracing sea breeze had certainly stimulated by brain cells, Viva Le France…….

If It wasnt for the fact I had to go back home to do some work, I would have loved a cool bottle of this lager, which sounds if it would have been perfect for relaxing by the sea , Hollande 1620 Lager

As part my mental training on the path to achieving my goal of making 2 million dollars, I’m constantly seeking new ways to keep me focussed, and help keep me on track when my desire or motivation starts to slip a wee bit. Having something visual to look at can be a great motivational tool to keep you riding along on the road to success.

It was just yesterday when one of my friends asked me if had bought any of those fake 1 million dollar bills. A light went on in my head and I thought that they would provide me with a constant visual reminder of what I’m trying to achieve. 

I finally found a gift shop that sold them; I will frame them and hang them on my wall in my office, when I get to my new home in the Caribbean. The million dollar bills that I bought may be fakes, but to me they are very real. I will see them every day; they will keep me focussed on why I need to continue to think smart, work hard and to stay focussed on achieving my goal.

The million dollar bills look real and like me I have a real goal, which I plan on achieving in the not too distant future.

The legendary Steve Pavlina offers some great advice on motivation, that I would recommend taking a look at…….Motivation for Smart People (Sans Chest Pounding)
