I'm hearing a theme from some of the more advanced practitioners. It's something like "don't start if you're not serious about it, the middle part may be less than pleasant". That's good to know. I'm still at the why do this. Once I hit that point of no return, I'm sure I'll be asking the questions you're talking about now.

I get your comment "the way I live has an impact on my meditation and the other way around". It's all the same thing, really, isn't it? I've loved learning that lesson. I stopped compartmentalizing my life (this is work, this is home, this is me, this is family). Now it's just ONE BIG. And meditation has become sort of the mortar that glued it all together. The more it moves together, the more curious I am about what it would look like from "the other side". So I just keep going. It's great to find others on a similar path. Doesn't feel so lonely any more
