A pleasant day Fellow Mylotters, Since I want to hit my target earnings, I am really trying my best to work hard. In the morning, I am working as an Admin Clerk in nearby area wherein, I am working online during the evening time. As I need to render an 8-hour time in my morning work, so I am quite exhausted the moment I went home. However, though I feel this way, I need to ignore my exhausted feelings since I want to hit my target earnings. Just like now, my mind does not coordinately think with my eyes. As my mind still in active mode while my eyes is closing a bit since I was tired. With this, I just want to double check it with you guys, if, you also feel the same way, I mean, your mind is not cooperating with one of your senses.

Yup, and I found a solution and couldn't believe how well it worked. I was all done with breakfast one morning and I was feeling that way so I just decided to completly relax, maybe even sleep for another 10 or twenty minutes. I sat on the couch and closed my eyes and for that 10 or 15 minutes just kept them closed and fell half asleep but not fully. fifteen minutes later I thought "I better nget going" and opened my eyes. What a diffrence! Later I was told that's called a power nap. Even though it doesn't replace regular sleep but it helps.

same thing is almost happening to me, but, i am not getting a power nap at all. hence, i would just choose to fall sleep early the next day.

When I was working outside the home, I let a lot of my online earnings go. Now that I'm not working anymore I have more time to tend to my online things.

You seem tired. If your eyes were falling asleep already you should stop working and rest for a while. Sometimes it happens to me and I stop and sleep. In this way I can regain my strength and work again. We need to take care of our health too. Just a suggestion.

I have felt that way before. It's funny, too, because it's usually when I'm studying! I could sit and be alert while reading a book for leisure purposes, but as soon as I read my study books my tiredness takes over and it's such an effort. So yes I know what you mean. Perhaps though, you are working too hard? You might hit your target, but at what cost? You'll be tired all the time.

This happens to me once in a while but I try not to push myself any further. As a result, my eyes are not as sharp as they used to be and I have to start wearing prescription glasses and contact lenses. I am also getting older so I don't bounce back from exhaustion like I used to do. Now I might need at least complete sleep for 3 days before I feel normal again whenever I work way beyond my normal sleeping hours.
