Gambling (online and in casinos), drinking (online and in casinos) and tilting (that only happens to me online, I guess its something about being able to face a person and having to face people that keeps me calm playing live) have always taken away from my profits greatly.

I'm working on this and probably will for the rest of my life. I will always drink when I want to but I need to learn to limit my drinking or get up from the table. I like to gamble and probably always will but I need to limit my gambling. Set an amount to lose when I decide to gamble and stick to it. I should never go play blackjack online because I'm down at the poker tables, which I have done plenty of times and thrown away the rest of my roll. It's pathetic but it's true. I can also say, recognizing my "leaks" and making just a little progress has helped me quite a bit.

But, I don't want to be the type of person who has to "avoid" things. I want to be the type of person who is control of himself and his life. I do not mean that to be insulting at all. It is just how I feel. I respect your decision and right to your own reason. And If I judge (which I do all the time) it's because I'm an asshole.
