I think that I don't really start playing games until I get all of my other tasks done during the time where I do play games. The reason is very simple. If I start playing, I might get into what I was doing. A bit too in, as I tend to fall into the trap of one more time and then one more time and then another time and you tend to see how something can fall into it.
I get all the myLot stuff do first. Perhaps I might pay a game after doing like about five or ten responses but I have to force myself to stop after about a half of an hour of time. Then lather, rinse, repeat, until everything is done. It is really not that hard to do but I do admit that there are times where I can get everything done. Still as long as I prioritize or map out a plan, everything should be fine.

Implementing a plan is a great idea.
Sometimes it's just difficult to stop doing something when your having a great time. I get carried away easily when I am enjoying myself.

Certainly. If those hours you've spent on playing video games have been spent on participating here on MyLot, you could have earned more than what you earned. I'm glad you know that.

Its really true man ,For example if I calculate the hours that I spent on games, I would have earned minimum $20 per month in mylot and I think $20 is not an easy money to earn online .

Damn right it is. Twenty bucks is actually quite high if you're earning from mylot. I can barely get to fifteen bucks a month.

You can find games online to play and make money. I use to play games online but not as much as you. It started to interfear with my money making so I cut back. Now that I don't have as many money making websites I can play more and even come on here and try to get a payout.

I also play games for cash and prizes (Sweepsnation and iwon.com) and have won on both sites. I usually don't play until the end of the day when I'm done entering all the freaking contests I enter and getting through emails and such. I have found no time to do what I am supposed to be doing, writing my novel. I continue to win stuff so that is probably why I continue with these games and contests instead of working. Not really a good thing.

Do you really need the money from mylot?
If the money is the difference between paying a bill and not paying a bill then you should mylot, but if mylot is just a little extra money to spend on luxuries then do what you enjoy most.

Hi ajithkumar,
Nice to hear that you love to play games on internet. But what games are you playing? Some years back I spent lot of time in playing live bridge and some card games on yahoo games and I was almost addicted to Zuma on msn. Subsequently I remained busy in my work and did not get time to play on line and now there is no interest playing for free as I can utilize that time to earn money.

In fact I enjoy playing the games. However, it is not time for me to play. I am easy to be addicted to playing the games. So I am like you, I try to avoid it. Perhaps I will play more games when I am retired one day:) At that time I won't feel guilty to relax:)
I love China

I spend so much more than 2 to 3 hours a day playing a MMO. Even thou I could be on mylot making change. I enjoy the game. It's relaxing in one sense but also enjoyable and I've meet so many great people.
There's nothing wrong with playing games to just relax and not worry bout the day to day grind of "well if I do this I can make money". INstead to just relax and to do things that are fun. It'll make ur live that much more fullfilling rather than feel like you have to use every min of the day to earn coin.
Just do what's natural and fun :) After all Life isn't always bout money :)

I usually play games more than you do and when I feel bored, I post here on mylot and see if my friends are online. I love mylot, I love playing games too. But i think mylot is better because of the money I get. :)

It alright if you want to play 2-3 hours a day playing games, I too did that..(^_^) We can't really stay on myLot for 2-3 hours straight because at some point it gets so boring so playing can also be a good breather. Have fun & enjoy that's the ,ain goal on myLot not really into business.. :)

You should create a list with things you need to do on your computer and sort them by priority. For example you should not play video games until you have done your work on MyLot, or you set yourself a short-time goal in the game,and after you have finished it start posting on MyLot and vice versa. Think of your own system and i'm sure that in a short time you'll be much better with organizing your time! ;).

I just joined today, so I'm going to have to go with the gaming. I also only really game at night, in the 3-4 hours before bed. It all comes down to personal preference and the mood at the time. I'm actively playing three completely different games right now, so the one I play every night depends on what I want to do. Games to me are a distraction, so do whatever you want to spend your time doing.

It can be difficult to divide up your time.
I love online games too. Only on the ps3! In my opinion it is the best system. It would be nice to get paid for playing it online. I try to divide my time amongst the 3 things I really enjoy, making money, playing the guitar, and playing games online. Some days 1 gets more attention then the others but if I am enjoying myself than it's worth it to me.

hello friend.. most of the online users like to play games
if u have enough money then its no problem but u mention u like to earn so instead of playing games for free, u can try for playing for money.
Like u. me also played games some days before but now am not playing any game as i have to earn, so spending my time searching that.
once u involved in games then u do not know how much u spend in that. it will never come to end or else u satisfied full even after playing for so long time. on the other hand even if you earn little bit money then u feel some satisfaction in spending that time online.
hope u understand. try to concentrate on way to earn if you need to earn.
if u surf for time pass then u can play games but restrict to some extent before involving deep in that.
have a nice time. all the best

I like to spend my time on MyLot and I also like to play online games. I think that the best solution is a combination of both things. I write on Mylot for a while and when I need a break I play some games. When I have played a couple of games I return to Mylot and then I have lots of new energy and I feel like starting and responding to discussions again. I your case I couldn't choose MyLot OR games, I would simply do both. If you feel that you ought to spend more time on online money making, you could use the games as a kind of reward when you have been working on MyLot or other online money making sites.

I do play games and sometimes when my mom is out, I could endure the whole day playing... I have this attitude that I should finish the game instantly, so most of the time I avoid playing games that can really get you addicted to it...

I would do what gives me more satisfaction. If it is myLot then myLot, if it is the online gaming then the online gaming. For me it is so easy, although I had many games which I was addicted to.

I used to play a lot, and I mean A LOT of games (at least 5-6 hrs a day) but now I don't play as much any more. I still play some but I always make sure to post a lot of MyLot first so I can make money which is my first priority.
