Nice post Mark and good luck with it.
as far as the bankroll building, some pitfalls from my experience at a similar venture that may or may not be pertinent.
Try to avoid the ever-present temptation to dip into your bankroll.
It"s important when playing, probably more so at micro levels, to have an understanding of what profits are achievable at the level you are playing. It will be a big help to keep you motivated and help recognise how well you are actually doing. For example, a winning six max cash player will range from...
+1 bb / 100 hands (Decent)
to
+15 bb"s / 100 hands ( top notch ) Beyond 50 nl this ceiling will drop as it"s much tougher to crush at midstakes +
So after a 2 hour session 4 tabling at 20 nl you will have played ~600 hands may have won $1.20- $3.00 the problem is that this doesn"t seem like much of a success. The point being, you need to clearly define and understand what good looks like for the level you are playing.
Mttr"s and Sttr"s will measure by Return on investment (ROI) anything positive is good with top players returning 130+%.
Hope that"s not too long-winded, tbh it was a struggle to get it from head to page
