Goals for this month

I am in a bit of confused spot in poker right now. I have moved up the stakes and have been crushing some games and then I hit a rut when I take a dwn swing and find myself 3tabling 200 super turbos with little concentration. I have decided to take a couple of weeks of playing as many super turbos as I have been playing, I feel like the swings are really effecting my game and makng me really play worse when I do play a normal speed husng, mainly because why am I busting my balls trying to wait out a fish when I could have taken 10 flips in the time this one game has taken. So as I want to get back to grinding some normal and turbo games I will make some doable goals for this month.

1: I will unreg all games when I have more than 2 tables of stakes above $100 up, I can still 4 table lower stakes if I ever get that kinda action.
2: I will not mix sessions of normal speed and turbo games with super turbo games, when I feel like a super turbo session I will set aside the day to playing them when I have alot of time to endure the swings.
3: I will have atleast 1 session reviewing atleast 3 games I played a week
4: I will re watch every croixdawg video on my computer (1 each day am grinding)
5: I will set sessions into timed and more structured sessions ie, 5hours at a time and then take sensible breaks as am not eating or exercising well at all.
6: I will buy a new computer and a monitor and a comfortable chair as lieing in bed just isn't professional.
7: I will try and get out of the habit of drinking so oftenly and freely.
8: I will not use msn/facebook whilst playing games and will not let real life problems effect my games, when I find this happening I will address the problem and deal with it before playing a session.

I know alot of these are a bit out there and maybe some are more doable than others, these are more guide lines for myself to gain some structure in my poker carreer as I lack massively structure in my life at the moment and am working hard on gaining more. I read notgoingnewheres post on being a professional and feel like lately I have just not been professional as I used to be. I guess as long as I notice it I can do something about it.
