I Am So Behind On All My Earning Sites!

United States
October 25, 2010 7:49pm CST
I never realized how behind I am on my online earning sites. I used to make time every day to visit them and now I barely get on myLot once every two weeks! School has been keeping me busy. Right now, I'm trying to read a bunch of Shakespeare's sonnets and I just can't focus. All I want to do is earn money online right now. I know the money will be there, but I guess I've been so-called 'deprived' from it lately that I'm overloaded. [b] How often do you log into all of your earning sites? When do you make time to visit your earning sites? When was the last time you were 'behind' on your earning sites?[/b]

Almost daily I get "behind" in my sites but I decided that now I will just set goals in figures and aim to earn a certain amount regardless of what site it comes from. That way the end result is the same and I will try and catch up whenever I am able to. I set aside 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening. Of course this is not the way it works out everyday but I do try. Remember a break from online earnings for a few days is not always a bad idea ;)

The break has lasted months. School really has taken a huge chunk of my time. I barely have time for myself, let alone online earning. I like your idea though.

I do mylot everyday. If I can be online 24 hours, I'll do it. But there are chores in the house and my eyes hurt when I stare at the screen too much. If I have an offline job, I think I'll spend less here in mylot. But I have a fun time reading and writing stuff that people experienced. I know I wont quit.

I log into my major earning sites most days of the week. I have some that are languishing that I never seem to get to. It gets to be an obsession sometimes. School is more important, so keep doing well there.

My grades this semester are lacking. The classes are difficult and it seems the more time I spend on them, the worst grades I get. Right now, I have about 3 B's and one C, but I'm working into late hours of the night and have less than hour of free time.

hi stephanie join the clu b and my favorite mysurveycom has been only giving five points out for the surveys and they used to give us' a lot of 30 and 50 and even 100 point surveys now it takes forever to get the thousand for ten dollars. I used to make twenty dollar svery month there now its much slower.

I try to visit my 'earning sites' everyday, but sometimes that's not possible since I'm busy with other things, and I end up not visiting them for a couple of days or three. In that case, I end up with a lot of 'pending' mails in the site's inbox, but I try my best to catch up once I visit the site again. I agree that it can be a little overwhelming, though :(

i actually only use this site as a "money site" because i can imagine that if i go on more then 1 i wont be able to keep up if u understand what i mean =/

I guess the reason why I was all suddenly like 'Oh my God. My earning sites!" is because the holidays are coming up and I don't really have enough money.

i understand... but how would u keep up on all of them... u surely can only focus on like one to get the maximum amount of money possible insted of getting small amounts on diffrent websites?

I did fine keeping up with them over the summer, but school has really taken a huge chunk of my time. I have them bookmarked in my browser, so I know they're there, I just don't have time to get to them.

I login to my earning sites daily. Don't always have the time to work for a long period on them but atleast view the money owed me. If I am close to payout, I'll stay with the site longer than some of the other ones. I haven't been as active on myLot lately as I would like to be but that happens. Good luck in school, carolbee

Right before I read your discussion I had decided to do a mylot discussion on finally catching up. For months now I've been behind on all my sites, including mylot. I'm all caught up now, finally! I know it is discouraging to be behind, especially when you want to have more money available. But your education in the long run will earn you more money than mylot will. lol I know that's cold comfort though.

Hello Stephanie, I can feel your frustration as I think many other myLot members can. If all goes well in my ever changing world, I log into all my sites daily and am able to stay caught up. More often than not, however, this is not the case. I can easily get behind 1,2 or more days and then it can take several hours in one sitting just to get back on track. I've learned not to get unraveled about it because I know that life happens and other things take up my pc time. The aggrevating thing is that once I do get my regular online activities somewhat caught up, I very rarely have time to explore the other things I want to do. It's the nature of the beast I suppose. I've been on myLot today for about an hour or so. I can't tell you the last time that happened. It's been a few months. One of my online goals is to spend quality time on this site and go on a posting frenzy. That's only happened a couple of times. Hopefully I can work that in at least 2 or 3 times a week. We'll see how that goes. I wish you all the best. Remember what you said : the money will be there. It will be there when you're ready. Hang in there.

Aww, you must be taking full time classes..Even with part time I find that I struggle to be as active as I use to, but since I have gotten a schedule, I am more active than when I first started. But if I were you, don't worry about these sites, as long as you sign in occasionally so your profile is still active, then when school is over, you can come back full tilt and tell us everything about your experience in school..:)

It's really hard to keep up all the earning sites we have specially if there are lots of them. Like you, I can barely log in to mylot not only a week or 2 but sometimes a month because I am busy with other things plus I have lots of sites to work but now I am here to visit.

I think that's forgivable. That you're behind on the online sites. Because I think that what you're doing instead, is more important in real life. Although the money to be earned is more tempting right now, in the long run I'm sure the other important stuff would more than outweigh your online earnings. Well, I'm really behind here in myLot. There's a bunch of emailed discussions that I still have to respond.

i understand you frustration. i'm a student as well. but this semester is a lot easier for me. being that i'm a part time not full time student until next sememster. so next semester, i might be going through the same thing your going through. its like i'm really addicted to earning money online. i do participate in all my sites everyday. even if i don't want to, or don't feel like it. i'm a member of about 14-16 survey sites. plus this one form site mylot. and they work they give me, takes hours after hours of the day. but the pay is worth it. anyway. good luck with all! oh and time management is the key!!

Well I understand how you feel but my problem is that mylot tends to consume the most of the time so I dont get around to many of the other online earning sites that I should. I wish I had more time in a day to do all the paid surverys but I just dont have enough time. Mylot is so much funner to.

Hi Stephanie, even though i am busy with school, i still find time to visit my favorite earnings websites online but not as much as before. when i have got nothing much to do, i visit mylot and respond to discussions that i find interesting or something i can relate with. good thing, it is semestral break and i have all the time in the world to do the things i needed to accomplish for two weeks. i am happy as I made enough money to support my needs specially my medical needs while on vacation. yey! Thank you, Lord!

I know I have been behind also. I only do this site and neobux. I was hoping to make payout, but I know I won't now. I have been busy with school and with my christmas crafts and my online store. Best of luck to you in school.

constantly. if anything changes my routine then i seem to start skipping days. got married this summer and about a month of activity was just not there! I find it best to have a time each day i just log in and do the important ones. you can't play catchup much it's better to keep going each day.

i feel that working on online social sites needs a lot of patience and if you stop opening your account then you are left much behind the payout and you need to reinvent the wheel , modify your habit and peer what options are favorable and give you best results.
