I will be honest with you that when I joined mylot all I wanted is to earn but I cannot start any discussion then and ended up just answering discussions and sometimes I just read and do not make any reply. All is futile with me.
Now I set aside thinking about the money and said to myself I might as well enjoy this area and this is my first discussion. How about you have you lost your thoughts, have you experienced writer's block? How do you overcome them?

Hello happychoo! I am Angel from the Philippines. Like you, I also joined mylot mainly to earn money. I have been a member of lots of message boards and I am not planning to join a new one until a friend told me about this. When I started here in mylot, I have stopped porting in the other boards because here, I found lots of interesting topics and really intellectual people.
Whenever I open a topic, I see to it that I post a sensible response. I have to have a stand about any topics.
But sometimes, there are those days where I can't think of anything to say and when those times come, I visit other websites, listen to music or rest my brains and talk to other people in real life to get some inspirations. After a few hours, if I feel like it, I will try to go back to mylot. But if not, I'll just skip the day and be back the next day.

That is exactly what I am doing, at work - I visit here once in a while to relax. Just deviate my mind from the stress of work and its effective. Then I was able to work again. As if I am talking to someone nearby.

You know, that's true. This past two days, I've been preoccupied with work that I visited my lot just to relax but I cannot make any comment that I just read them, but its okay since I was able to de-stress for the moment.

Well, I didn't join myLot with the intention of earning money. My wife and daughter were already registered and they were always discussing the topics so I decided to join in the fun. Like you, I just cannot think of suitable topics to post so I will just continue until something comes to mind. Just relax and enjoy the forum and keep a pen and paper beside you so that if anything comes to mind, you can jot it down before you forget it. Happy posting.
