For those that can't do both, you probably should choose another career.
Go back to Florida.
Don't disagree with many of your points, but your CRM leaves much to be desired. Even positive attitudes and hard work cannot get everyone through. Financial reasons limit decisons on the part of the company. It is a whim in many cases. If they need you on the line and are desperate, you get more opportunities. They are winding things up, projections decreasing, you get less. All with a 'positive attitude' and hard work. You should learn to appreciate the lottery elements of our profession. Anyone can bust any check, depends how hard they squeeze and how you lead the crewmember into the check. A Designee can intimidate or cajole if they so choose. That is my opinion after a combination18 years military/121 instructor experience while also flying the line.

Get off the GD computer, go get a half a shot of something and crawl into bed. Set the alarm first. Set three alarms.
Give yourself enough time to wake up, take a relaxing shower, and make it happen. The negative thoughts are gunna kill ya.
Look past the whole ordeal. You'll get to be back in bed by 6am.
Here is a true pro response. No nonsense, excellent CRM, outstanding CPT skills who is a leader.
