I have. For a long time I just blindly said I wanted to make 100k in a year, deadline being Dec. 1st without any real idea how I was going to do it.

Then I read an article talking about how you really need to sit down and plan a way to make that money, figure out the avg. you need to make per week/per month, all that stuff.

I figured out to get my goal I needed to make about $2.8k a week, but I set my goal for 3k a week and said I would grind $3/6 NL and below. When I make more than my goal for that week I decided I could play tournies with some of it the next week and maybe get a BR boost, but really I plan on all my money coming from just cash games.
I had alot of success the first 3 weeks I actually stuck with my plan.
Then week 4 i started running horrible and decided I'd just move up limits and win it back - which is always dumb, and I ran bad and lost more.
So now I'm back to grinding, and I'm still on pace for my goal.
