Part-time Pokerschedule (during summerbreak)

Ok, first off I want to make clear that I know about all the other motivation threads and stuff like that but this isn't supposed to be just like those.

That being said, I will give a short introduction. I lurked this forum for quite a while before joining summer last year. I turned 18 back then and played some microstakes poker for 2-4 months (not completely sure). Now I had some serious RL issues and took a long break from poker back in February this year. I got totally sick of my own mentality, not playing because of those issues and shit, last month and decided that after I am done with school (now) and enter my 2 month schoolbreak I want to put some serious time into poker and make this thing progress a good amount.

Now I made myself a schedule to make sure I put in the hours this summer, or at least I hope it will accomplish that...

09.00-10.00: Getting my lazy ass out of bed

10.00-11.00: Actually waking up (eating/shower etc.)

11.00-12.00: Starting off with some vid or posting (usefull) crap here

12.00-17.00: Playing poker (obviously)

If I didn't put in a session in the afternoon or don't have any mates coming over that evening I might also play during the evening and that should look like...

20.00-01.00: More grinding yow

If I am way tilted (which fortunately doesn't happen much anymore) I will use the time I normally play to evaluate why I suck and made myself tilt by playing bad or watch a vid to remind myself of how it's actually done.

Obviously everybody is welcome to post any kind of suggestions or possibly their own schedule or dayplanning if you have any.

Would also like the input of any pro around here on how they make sure they put in enough hours and if they use any kind of schedule for themselves.

This is more or less my "Part Time" scedule. Pretty basic day-to-day stuff for the weekdays.

6:30-7: Wake/Get Dressed/Run/Shower/Makeup
-If I wake up a bit early I'll get a reivew/Video in
7-14: School/Travel-time/Homework
14-1530: Free Time. 90% of the time this is a Vid or Hand Review Session
1530-2030: Sleep
2030-2100: Run/Prep/Articles/LP
2100-0130: Primary Session Time/Hand Review if I am tilting. I try to make the most of this time.
0200-6:30: Sleep

Yeah, weird sleep times. It works. 8.5-10hrs a day. Solid stuff. xP

Always open to more ideas/suggestions though. I think it's really difficult to be able to fit 2+ sessions a day with any kind of rl stuff like school or a job going on unless is a low-time commitment kind of thing.

How about spending some time outside during the day ? Sun and fresh air are vital and you are gonna play much better.

Yeah, that's basically why I either play a day or night session. If I play day I can visit friends/party at night, if I got nothing planned for night I will play then and get to do some outside stuff like play some football during the day.

Much thanks for the tips though ofcourse.

So could you give me a rough idea of what your schedule would look like ??

How about...

12.00-14.00: Poker

14.00-17.00: Play football, own some noobs on Xbox 360, watch a movie etc.

19.00-21.00: More poker

21.00-01.00: Drink beer with mates

Doesn't look half-ass bad why didn't anyone else I showed my schedule to tell me that ??
