Modify your MyLot habits?

i would also say that i don't need to modify the way i do my stuff over here. i only do mylotting whenever i wish to, if there is good connection. i still have work in the office and even i can go online within works, i have to minimize my online business. when i get home, i mylot until my eyes get tired and that's it.

I don't have any set of guidelines that I follow here at MyLot. As there is absolutely no pressure. I start a discussion or respond to a discussion if it is of interest to me. I couldn't imagine typing here for hours straight. I have way to many online projects. I keep a tab open for MyLot...and check in every so often

Yes, MyLot can be extremely addictive but I think I have found a balance. It is pretty much the same balance that I would use for pretty much anything else that I would find online. It takes affective time management skills. Yes, I know, that dirty word, one that is the downfall to even the most organized and intelligent person. See, I tend to only do a certain number of responses at a time and then force myself to work on something else for a time. When that task is completed, then I do a few more posts. Then I move onto the next task. Then I do some more posts. I think we have established a pattern. I never really put too much of a time frame, but I have a pretty good idea, onto how to manage everything. After all, I am going to be taking breaks in between tasks, so why not do something productive instead of just sitting down and twiddling my thumbs. I do agree that moderation is the key. Spreading out the MyLot posting during certain points in the day will help a lot. Then you can do "X" number of posts and then go do other things, before returning to do even more posts. It really depends on your schedule. I know there are days where it can be quite a juggling act but I somehow manage. It tends to be both planning and timing that will allow me to balance MyLot within everything else but it can be done.
