How did I get to GLM? Not too complicated. Read and play lots for a long time. It doesn’t hurt to be smarter than the average bear, to quote Yogi bear. It was hard to do while I was still working and would not be possible today without BBO, especially since most of the tournaments that I used to play no longer exist and our local club is often down to 2 tables. I don’t really have any further bridge goal, other than to still be playing when I am 90+.
