Advice for splitting money between short term options and long term holdings

I

Been trading options for 1.5 years now. And made some significant money. I do want to set aside some money to play it safe and just invest that for the long term while also trading options too.

Right now I have it as 80% is shares I own and is meant for long term. 20% is options trading.

How does everyone else go about this?
