You DO know I've been here a long while, right.
This year, almost every single month i get to reached the pay out. That's right Newbies, It's either within two weeks or ten days prior that i reached the pay out. but that's not the case. these days, even though that am almost free all day but some how i felt tired already when ever i post something.
Last night i tried to respond and even commented on some discussions. but that was just two and after that i just got sleepy.even today, it's the same. maybe I've been addicted too much.It's not that am giving up mylotting, my friends know very well that's not gonna happen. but I guess in order to make a difference in my off line life i should let go of things a bit.
I am thinking of three things:
* Delete this account and make a new one (with out you're knowledge)
* Leave mylot for weeks and come back to tell my story
* Just Leave and do "God knows where"
Among these three, a lot has done it already with out telling the others. I wonder why i kept telling this to you guys. Am I asking for advice or just expressing how I feel frustrated on how my mind is in the state of "Writer's Block".

You can leave mylot for a while.But when you miss your 10$ payout from mylot in the week you usually get,you will be running bak here to post replies again.More than that,I bet you will miss your friends here.Even though you will be tired to post here,you will open your mylot account and atleast whats happening.You wouldn't believe me,I did like for almost a entire month of just logging on to mylot and reading discussions,but not posting aything..You will be alright mate.Like you said,it's just "writers block".

Hello Narnia,
I think I should do relaxing as the new year comes. Last days of the month is coming I believe so had to rush in for the pay out before the month ends. Well,I wasn't born a writer from the start so I think it's normal for me to at least think about looking around, like what you said though.thanks for dropping by. Have a great day.

I can very well understand what you are feeling at this moment and believe me when I say i feel the same way too quite a few months already. I have not been active in participating in Mylot especially posting and commenting on others peoples topic. I am getting tired too, but I will never delete my account because of that.
I simply love Mylot even do sometimes it's a bit tiring and boring. I always go back to this site and check my account because it's a lively and very interactive community. My advice for you is to relax and leave this site for few days maybe until then you will miss it back.

Hello Reckon,
I love mylot as well, but of course, we should have time to take some time off and get some break. Guess a lot didn't agree with my third option, I never knew the risk that i'd be taking from there. I will take you're advice, probably after new year, I still need to make the best of the day most specially the last day of the month and Year is coming. Thanks.

I see you are not alone feeling the way you feel now. Though I like mylot a lot but there are times I feel bored mylotting endlessly. I made a similar discussion just to gauge public opinions and many wanted to remain loyal to mylot for next year. I have come this far and made many friends here which is one reason why I erase the thoughts of leaving or changing my skin. Maybe we just try to take a break so we can refresh ourselves.

Hello Zandi458,
You have made a lot of discussions so unique that I had to squeeze a lot of brain juice just to make a better response even if it's not the best response. We both had made a lot of friends and even annoying people who only wants to fool around with us though. I haven't really thought of a long break lately, but I have spent less in mylot, at least my computer is not compromised.

Hi dear,
I want to tell you something different. If you don't have some similar social site, register with few others and work with them for a week time. You do the same over there also. After one wee you will come back to myLot with more energy and enthusiastic.
I did the same some moths back. Not because I fed up, I got a referral. I tried the same and worked for few days. Once I got the experience with that site, I feel more attracted to myLot. So, it is better to do so. Spend more time with some other sites and you will soon fed up with the same and mean time, you will prefer myLot as the best one.
If you don't have a site like this, I will help for it, if required.
Try, it is a psychological factor. But it works.
Thank-s

Hello Thanks1961,
Mylot has always been the best site for me. but you're right, I should look for another site that would make me release my boredome. Unfortunately I don't have that much of a luxury time since I got other things to do as well. With mylot it's not as longer time as it used to be. Come to think of it, I should checked for that other social site. Trouble is, they are slower than mylot. Thank you and have a great day.

Letran it happens to the best of us. A break might not be bad. This way you come back so recharged with yet that many more discussions.
But... can you do it. You will probably miss it and not be able to stay away.

Hello Hardworkinggurl,
Yeah, you're right. I mean, I used to see a lot of my oldy friends a lot before, but lately they started being less active. Only a few veteran lottes have come back, the rest have left the community. Some others comes in and out once in a while. No, maybe I can't or don't have guts to leave mylot now, maybe some day.

hello LK,
i don't know how will i react on this being one of yout friends (do you consider me as one? :D) here i will be sad if you are going to delete your account though you have a plan to make another one but still, :(. You are one of the people who guided me here in Mylot you really helped me a lot most specially during the time i am so freaky :d.
I think you just need to freshen up (maybe an inspiration will do hahaha!) if you need a place to visit i will suggest Portugal it is really a beautiful country (wink*).
hope you will change your mind.
have a nice day!

Hello Catch,
You have nothing to worry about me, been here for two to three years. I think there is a time where you need to give you're FRIEND a bit break from here. Honey, you indeed have potential since you are out going in real life. You can make mylot community lively with you're charisma. English is not a problem since I got problems with typing with english when I started here. I learned from other mylotters language since most of them are from United States, UK, Australia or Europe when they were mostly dominant here.
Really, I haven't got a word from her. But am glad she's helping her parents. Remember what I told you about their business, am proud of her..and am glad I have known her as a sweet friend. Thanks catch. Have a great day.

Hi Letranknight!
I have felt the same confusion just a few days back. It is as if, I wanted to have another routine in my system. But I guess, I still find myself coming back.
Deleting your account and make a new one is also a good idea. You will be as if a newbie and perhaps can rewrite your old discussions like a beginner. Leaving mylot for weeks is also like resting for a while. It is the same like recharging for that routine. Leave and do is like engaging to another venture.
Whichever way you want to choose, it is up to you my friend. Besides, those choices don't lead you in totally forgetting mylot.
On the other hand, I think that feeling is normal to us. The feeling of tiredness of the routine at the same time, our mind is as if not working out even if we are preoccupied.

Hmmmm!That is the saddening part of it my friend. I guess, we have other ways to communicate with your new found friends from mylot. ...That third option should be dealt with more care because I know many of us will be missing you in here. If you choose the third one though, I want to say that, "hey, drop by here sometimes"...Do not feel insecure my friend. My birthday is fast approaching too and cannot think of how will I celebrate it now that my special someone had left me behind....
In the lighter note, cheer up...I just wish you a PROSPEROUS AND ABUNDANT BLESSINGS THIS 2011!!!

Hello Maean_19,
Yeah, but of course, I am going to lose some of my friends who have come to know at the later stage. The people I knew when I come back aren't much around any more. Well, choice number three actually has strong tendency for me to give up mylot forever. My birthday Is approaching again, I never felt so insecure before. Although I knew why, but I guess it's something I need solving first this new year.

Hello Indah,
I kept telling that in the past and even now I have said it. But trouble is after tonight, I might think about going back again tomorrow. But I guess the real problem is doing something else besides house choir. I just can't believe I feel tired recently. thanks

Everything has a saturation point, Knight. You've reached yours. Go spend sometime watching people at Glorietta or Roxas Boulevard. Have you seen Trinoma of Triangle North of Manila. Sip some coffee somewhere. It would be good for the senses.
Your writing had improved a lot. And mylot had something to do with that. Come back when you are ready!

Hello Eileen,
Advance Happy New YEAR! Unfortunately, I would feel insecure or envy couples or groups of friends walking on those malls. How ever, I've been thinking of jogging back again by next year after January 1st most specially since my mom gave me a Jogging pants for the first time this christmas. Yeah, but I don't really focus much on my so called improvement, but you are right about going back when am ready. Ok, maybe it's just a feeling but I do need refreshing. Have a nice day.

Hello Saphrina,
You see, I am not even aware what day it is though, sometimes I get shocked if the day is this and that. One thing I hate though is that every morning am in the mood, to mylot and then first I had to do house choirs and others things that really drained me to do something else. Break is something that i've been thinking but of course, for now am still addicted to mylot.

Hi LetranKnight
Writers Block is the factor here. Have a break for a few days. You would definitely feel fresh. Suggest you go off to a place without any Internet connectivity just to be on the safe side as from my experience, once the Internet thing takes over, it rules most of your days... So I think I can recommend you a vacation off to some place without one... (pls dont ask where is that place on earth as I myself am in search of it for quite sometime now )
I would not recommend you to delete your current profile and create a new one... No No, I am just starting to feel familiar to this one here and a new change can be unfair to me
Ps. And when you are back, let me know if there really exists a place without Internet so that I can join you on your next vacation
Cheers,
theSids

Hello Thesids,
that's why I couldn't really be active in other writing article sites. For one thing, people aren't easy to reached or attend to my topics since there's so many blogs being made across the world though. No, I won't take a vacation somewhere else I don't have the money, I won't even leave, kinda dangerous these holidays.
I know there is a place that exist with out interenet. How else can we explain others who don't like mylot or other social network sites, they have found that place. Thanks.
PS: just too many to mention.

I can invite you at my place and you can have a good vacation around - I am sure there are many things around that would refresh you up and as we have Internet at my place, you can also be online.

Oh, LetranKnight, I thought I was the only one!
This happened to me too this month. I also don't know why I couldn't concentrate to myLotting, so I said to myself to calm down and to let it pass. I wasn't too active this month, and I really can't explain why. But I never thought about closing my account and getting all over from scratch. I would hate not to be able to use copy/paste or to upload photos in discussions or to use emoticons or to fight again for a colorful star...

Hello Inu1711,
Well, you still have a long way to go, there are months that I was inactive too. As for me, I feel that i've been here for a long time as well even if they're not as old as the newbies. I do love photo uploads though, you still have to do you're best to get the blue star. Using emoticons are also a regular habit for me as well.

I ain't going anywhere, MysD, that's what I said: I never even thought about closing my account to start from the scratch.
LetranKnight, you know what's curious? I realised I don't know what country are you from and I visited your profile.
"NEVER SURRENDER!"
Does it sound familiar to you?
How come you think about giving up to what are you doing now?

Hi my friend and kabayan, deleting your account is not the answer might be later on you regret. Better forget online things for at least 2 to 3 weeks just relax and do whatever offline life. Discipline yourself not to do any online work or social networking even FB or others... then come back with a fresh and new mindset... see you around

Hello Visavis,
You know I admire Mylotters like you. I don't what kind of strength you guys are getting just to be online all the time even if you got exhausted. The last work I had was another volunteership, what surprises me is that I don't have the time to think when I am tired. Normally I would post one or two but after that's it turn off then go to sleep. I agree, but it's still do need something.
Have a nice day

This happens to almost everyone. When you have too much of something you will start to hate it. You should have done loads of mylotting and that might have caused this. Sometimes being here just to earn money will not let you enjoy the experience rather it will make you feel like a machine. What I do is I reply to 20 posts continuously and then take a break and come back and post another 20 everyday. The break does refresh me and I am ready for the second session.
I would suggest you not to close the account rather you could take a break from mylot. This would sure work.

Hello Sundar,
Well, I am in the mood of exaggerating my ideas and thoughts. No wonder I easily get tired from it. I only wish I had some really cool using the entire cabality of my brain so that I can write a lot here. I think having something knowledgeable allows you to write a lot though. I won't close my account for now I think. Have a nice day.

I'm sure nobody is forcing you do Mylot right? I myself been in and out of here several times already. And I haven't even reached my 2nd payout. Come on, just chill. If you don't feel like it, just don't. If you feel like it, just do.
Go and hang out with your friends today.

Hello Rajaiv,
No, nobody's forcing except me but I guess my mind is telling me to quit some how and my heart felt that am tired and need to do something else. But that was this late morning. I don't have that much friends to hang out with, except during the Mylot Conference in Mall of Asia. I miss that gathering but I gotta do some thing by next year.

hi letran I am having a sort of opposite problem as I want to play
catch up on mylot and my left shoulder, the one with the bionic shoulder joint is really hurting. I guess of course its the nerves to the blasted shoulder but how on earth can I type fast with one arm determined
to hurt. ouch. when I get a sort of writers block I sit down with a
timer and set it for twenty minutes. then I write without editing at
all letting my mind go where it wants to go. sometimes I can find
good stuff amid the dross other times its just plain junk. but today
I do not have writers block but a sore arm block.I have a choice of
going downstairs and watching a movie or sitting here and trying to tupe
and catch up on things a bit.

Hello Hatley,
Wow, that must have hurt, you're will must be so strong mylotting, and I noticed from the number of you're post. Maybe my mind was the problem, sometimes I need to go out probably and have something to enjoy to. I guess letting go means letting all of our thoughts out. Thank you for being around that much hatley, I really appreciated. Have a great day.

Yeah I also get tired of mylotting so what I do is just take a few days off and than I am as good as new when I return back on here still I don't like to take long breaks though because when I do that I tend to get more lazy. Still I am doing better on mylot I also reach payout really easily, but not recently that's because I have been taking to many breaks which is not good.
So yeah I would suggest that you take a few days off of mylot and maybe you will egt your energy back, but it's really all up to you on what you want to do. Yeah it's good to leave for a week if that's what you want so that will be a good break for you.

Hello Anime,
Thank you for you're advice. I just changed my mood again after being so tired last night, and I have no idea why I got so tired all of a sudden though. Well, taking too many breaks is good most specially when it comes to relaxing. Unfortunately, I haven't been relaxing for a long time now from mylot. Probably next will I can do it. Thanks and have a nice day to you.

Hello Starrose,
I am actually suffering from a bit of depression and writer's block at the same time on different occassions. Doing several things makes us really drained from doing these things. I don't know what malady were you referring to though. But so far I haven't seriously fought some one. Have a nice day.

You could do some breaks here in mylot. You can be offline for a week and return the next week. Mylot can sometimes be tiring. I am also getting tired after posting ten or more responses. I know it is hard to continue mylot but you don't need to push yourself. You can take a refreshing relax after doing the mylot stuff.

Hello Meuji,
Yeah, I can do that, probably next year I think. I think either you start over or make unique postings so that people can get to noticed you. It's hard to earn when you're star is a bit low my friend. You noticed why I never allow my star to go down. Well, I will note you're advice, stay here and you will learn from others too.Have a great day.
