Hi Friends, I have been working in myloy with great enthusiasm. I used to read so many discussions and responded and commented, tagged and rated with great spirit and commitment. My income also reflected it. It was in the range of 75 cents to 90 cents a day. But all at a sudden I lost the thrill, my momentum of work in mylot decreased, so did my income. The daily range fell to 20 cents to 30 cents. I could not see any particular reason. I lost my enthusiasm. I need to be motivated. I hope a little motivation will take things back to the right track. Can you friends, please motivate me a little?

I'm new here and I think I'm enthusiastic, but I'm only earning about 20c a day. Still, I find it great at mylot because the discussions are interesting and the people are nice! I like knowing what people think about issues :) Hope you'll be able to find your motivation again!

Thank you sakana. Very glad to read that you are enthusiastic about mylot.You are right. People here are mostly wonderful and friendly. Responses from fellow mylottians make me glad, they sooth, they inspire, they motivate. Thank you once again for taking the time to give your response.

I set goals. I want to make the $10 payout each month. Now that I have reached that goal I am going to try for $15 a month. The other thing you could do is to recruit referrals and then they can be making money for you on mylot. I am not good at getting referrals and I have not put that much effort into it. I have one referral so far and right now they have not been active.

Hello gberlin, I am glad to read that you have achieved your earlier set goal and is setting new goal. Now my problems are over. I think I am doing well in mylot. Now I have two referrals. One is totally inactive, while the other one is active.
Thank you gberlin for your kind advice.

Keep up the good work!If you feel reliefed by your income here, I think this is a good motivation,of course if this is your main goal. However enthusiasm can't last forever and there will be these periods of missing it. Don't worry - you'll be back in form soon:)

Congratulations djbizmonkey34 for having charming Alexi. He seems to be your inspiration and motivation in life. Your words really influenced me and I am already on my way to that side, where it is full of green pasture. Thank you very much for your kind, inspirational words.

I understand what you mean. Sometimes it is easy to get burt out on something, even if you love it. My advice would be to not really watch how much you make a day but rather try to stay on posts that you REALLY are interested in, with nice people, and sincere responses. I find that when I truly love the topic I am more likely to respond, and enjoy responding, than if I try to respond because I feel like I NEED to... if that makes sense. I hope this helps!!! Good luck!!!

Perhaps reaching out to ALL here is just the step you needed to take to get the ball rolling. Maybe those of us who have read your discussion, can spend some extra time to invent some rather capturing discussions to juice things up and help you along.

This is what you need it to get the motivation from yourself. That is what adults do. If you like the income then work at it. With your friends all set to Notify On you will have a bunch to just work from. All the better since they are from your friends. Set aside a bit of time for going mylot, mine is in the afternoon and sometimes late evening. I have other things I do and know must be done so as an adult I schedule them in my life. Good luck with you finding a way to keep yourself set on earning the amount that you wish to make. It can be done!

Hi friend! I can imagine how you are feeling at the moment. It hurt me to see people close to me getting worried. I also experienced it, but I just continued cos of the friends am having here in Mylot. They have been so wonderful (including you). increase your momentum and keep trying. You will experience a change along the line. Don't get focused much on the payment part of it, but keep posting and responding to discussions. You will find out at the end that your money is increase. But by the time you keep monitoring the payment, it will seems not to be increasing. Thanks

Future you said a real fact. If we concentrate on the money part we will feel as if we are not earning sufficiently fast. But if we focus on the discussions and friends we can enjoy more and at last we will find the amount earned is not bad either. future, you are a real friend with concirns for me. I appriciate and thank you for your response and friendship.

I think we all need to be a little motivated once in a while. If you want some motivation for earning more money here, set a goal for yourself like something that you would like to purchase with the money you earn here. Sometimes having a specific goal is a way to get you motivated to stick to your plan. Good luck to you!

Well i have also gone by this stage, and i decided for a period of time, i am only going to read posts and response only if somthing interest me.
So i just recommand you to read and read and read and response only what really interests you, the motivation is will be back.
Do not think of the money earning, or that you have to respond to a certain quantity of posts each day, just focus on enjoying the reading.

I was also missing mylot motivation a while ago and even sometimes now. Luckily I am not here for the money, I suffered somewhat monetarily here in those times. But I needed a little break. It seemed as though every discussion was the same, nothing inspired me. When I feel that way, I simply log off. Maybe come back later and do a little. Sometimes I find I just have nothing to say. I always make payout, so that is not an issue. I wish I could give you some sure fire cure, but there is none really. I suggest taking a little Siesta from Mylot.

Hi abroji. I know what you mean. Dont be alarmed because it happened to almost all mylotters. I have that feeling a week ago. My enthusiasm went so low that it has affected my income here in mylot. I used to get 50 cents to 1 dollar per day but now it has plummented to 0.3 cents. That how low my enthusiasm was. But after a few day breaks, I started to pick up my motivation. So, I think the best for you is to have one or two days break from mylot. It is also a good way to get inspired with new discussions. Cheers.

sure I was really excited at first but then I started to slow down I've been on here two weeks and I've made $3.19. I decided today that there is no limit to the money that I can make on here so today I'm setting a goal to make at least five doolars today. After that I want to make mor. I want to make at least two hundred dollars a month onhere and I'm going to work until I get it. It's easy money stay at it because there is no limit to how much you can make. at least I don't think it is. I'll find out when they tell me I've reached the limit. Untill then I'm going to keep on typing.
