One big key here is that you wrote: "[B][COLOR=red]desperate [/COLOR][/B]to get to my $500 figure".
 
Good to set a goal, but NOT good to set a time limit for getting there. 'Desperate' poker is not good poker. Play your good game and you will get there - when you arrive ... :D 
 
Many times I have gone to the casino expecting to stay for 'x' time with 'z' BR. Sometimes I'm out earlier, other times dynamite couldn't blow me out of my winning seat and dinner is now on the breakfast menu.
 
Patience, patience, patience. You say you've set a 'max' goal so you can move up - set a MIN goal as well, and stick to it. If the cards say it's not your day, realize that you CANNOT buy the day. Quit while you're a little behind and live to fight another day.
 
Remove 'desperate' from the thinking. If you'll play desperate poker at 10/25, you'll do it at 25/50, 1/2, 2/4 etc. and the end result will be the same.
 
Good luck backing off - it's NOT easy, but well worth it.
