I made money playing poker. While repetitiously putting in 2 cents, I generated the profit eventually to 26 dollars. Yeah I'm good, I know. In order for me to keep making money at poker, I have to like play 24-7, I have a system that really works. It's like you're only step away from getting the right card and then you have to move on to the next one or risk losing it all. So, it's really a timing and patience game. I don't like this with poker.
I need to pick up on something where I don't really have to work for my money. Poker is a game where you have to work to be successful. Man, it gets so tedious and lousy for me. The pros are so crazy over playing hands that I think they've lost track of how many times they've lost by now. I don't have anything against poker pros really and it's pretty cool to watch them duke it out most of the time. I've lost all these feelings of losing money and the fear over it. I guess that's good, no big attachment to money. You need to let go of that attachment and invest sometimes in good areas. That's the lesson I learned, so I don't fear playing with millions of dollars on the stock market with my own money. By that time, it's not even luck to me anymore but all about skill.
I pretty much need to find an area where I can spend most of my time really loving it and making money at the same time. That's the only way for me to become successful. I need to do something where I know I'll like it and would not mind working on it forever, except for occasional fun and something different. For the most part, a financial lifestyle that would be so cool to work hard for.
