Where even though you have time to post on here, you just do not get anything really posted on here, to where you make less than .10 cents and that is counting what your Referrals have done as well? For me, yesterday was one of those days, and I am sure there will be many others.
For some reason yesterday when I got home from work, I just had no Energy to concentrate on trying to post in here. I am sure since it was the first day returning back to work after getting this Cold, was part of it I am sure. But even when I tried coming in here to post, I just could not think of anything here I was interested in posting in.
So how do you deal with the times you do not feel like posting in here? Do you start New discussions, or do you just not post, and see your Earnings not increase much for that day?

I have a part time job also, and at home businesses, plus 2 children. I try to do what I can, when I can. I try not to let my hobbies or business interfere with my children. They both need me, and as it turns out, while smart, they won't learn things on their own. It's hard...I really wish sites would pay more. My husband is very sarcastic about these sites, so I hope the money comes in all at once.

I have lots of those days. One day has stretched into two or three months. I think I am just burned out. I just can't get into the groove of posting any more, whether it pays good or not. I just can't seem to be able to share my feeling on things like I once did. What can I say, I think I am depressed and having difficulty digging out of it.

I have had days that no matter how hard I try I just cannot find any thing to post. I look at everthing and nothing is interesting or I just don't know what to say. Once int while even the simplest topicis too muh to try to answere. But I keep on trying. Never give up.

There are days when I just have to let it go. No matter the earnings. They matter to me, but I cannot let anything demand what I physically cannot give. It sounds to me like you have more than a cold, and you need to just give up, lay down and rest. I am going to do that in just a minute myself. If you are responding and starting discussions when you are in poor shape, you will not earn much anyway, because you will not be up to your usual quality work. Do not feel bad about being away, just go on, pamper yourself and get to feeling better.

You make so much more in the real world this is certainly secondary. I always answer from the emails in my Mylot folder from my friends which are all set to notify on. If I go down the list I can get a few done and it can trigger me to do more. I don't have that much trouble since I have many varied friends and the discussions can be vastly different. That helps alot. Good luck and I am glad you are working. Again you make so much more money there.

Sometimes i just can't find anything interesting to post on, and i don't feel like starting anything, so i don't do anything at all, I guess we all need a day off, even though we loose cash.Basically we all need 'off the computer completely' days,lol.

I made eight cents in here yesterday. It was one of those days for me too. I was here on and off but was never really interested in posting anything. After awhile I would go off and do something else but kept returing to check the discussions. I saw a few that I thought I could answer but I couldn't focus enough to write anything. I was actually shocked that I made that eight cents.lol.

I have been trying to rest a lot lately with trying to get over this Cold. Some days it is hard though. Just been so busy lately so it is harder to get on here due to I need sleep.

For your cold, drink lemon in the morning or take mango after the diet. keeps you from the cold. As Im frm another country, doing full time work and whenever i got the time, im on mylot and after so many months im jst lacking .10 cents behind for payout and im sure, today only i reach my first payout. actually i dnt have any referral but then also it take months to reach. i enjoy mylot as it act as relaxing tonic for me. so i not bother about the timetaken but im happy tht im going to reached to my first payout.
whenever i not in idea to start the discussion, i prefer to give as many reply to the discussion as i can. i still care for the quality discussion rather then go for oneline discussion which i avoid generally as care should given to rating also. lol

On days like that I usually can't think of much to post as discussions so I might respond to a few discussions, but I usually just end up with a few cents by the end of the day. I hate to see it, but it happens.

Normally when I don't do much I still post a few responses and that still fetches me a nice amount. (not to drop below $1)
But sure I've had days when I've done nothing at all and just earned from those who I referee here. those days are long over as there to lazy and don't see what I see but if they tried I'm sure they'd be content.

Hello,krause,i think everyone will have low time whne they do not feel like having any posts in mylot.
Sometimes,if i do not really find good discussions to reply or i do not haev any ideas on starting discussions,I may just read others' profiles and discussions but not reply to them.I do not haev any referrals,may be in those days i just earn 1 cents or so.

Well, here so far this month I am earning more again from my Referrals than I have made here from this site. This site has been really Slow going so far this month, but I have yet to loose hope.

Actually, I've had plenty of days under 10 cents. If you have referrals to help you rake in the pennys, you are fortunate. Like you, I am not always to just sit down and start typing. Sometimes I am too occupied with other things.
Thanks for asking. Have a wonderful day.

I do that fairly occasionally I will end up spending hours reading discussions and find I don't know how to contribute or I go back over discussions that I have already answered to see if they left a comment, but because that takes time and you don't earn from it. I feel like my time was wasted here.. I don't always tend to earn that much these days... Somedays I log in and just feel dumbfounded and can't function to contribute decently so I log off and come back when I can....

I feel like that often. Not much energy to be on here for hours at a time. Some days, I gome here and my mind is blank. So I leave and come back later and maybe do a few posts. The farther I am away from the $10 limit, the harder it is to post regularly for me. The closer I get to the limit, the more incentive I have to get over it.
