Id also say that time based play is probably the most important aspect of personal success.

As an analogy, lets use an athlete.

An athlete of any level, whether it be local or international, will train at regular times of regular duration.

This is partly because it's easier to schedule training in this was and partly because it avoids burnout.

He could decide to train twice as much twice as often, but without careful planning this could lead to burnout.  His body may not be able to sustain this intensity over a period of weeks or months.

The same goes for poker.

You need to play regularly otherwise you do not advance.

You also need to play for realistic amounts of time, otherwise you play very intensely for 2 months and then burnout. The time spent playing then drops to a very minimal level for a period and eventually you throw yourself back into it.

The player who plays consistency will usually show better long term results than the player who plays spradaicaly.

This is true of poker, sport and anything else in life where the goal is to increase in ability.
