I don't stress out, even if I am working online. I take that as a sign that I need a break from the internet world. Most of us work from home or get money through the internet, yes? What do you do when circumstances don't permit you to be online?
Personally, I let it go.hahaha! I make use of my time in other ways, such us going out or going to the gym perhaps or simply maybe just hang out. I'll check back online of course after a few hours and by that time, I'm not annoyed that it took a while before I'm able to log back online.

I hate it when my time is limited but I try not to stress over it I just find other things to do, I am out of a job again and have to do as many things as I can on line for niw until I can get back to work and my husband does not understand that when you work on line you have to wait a while before getting paid because of all the transfers that are involved like pay pal and alert pay, it is not like getting a check every Friday! I wish it was that easy! L.O.L.

ea he don't know nothing no matter how many times I tell him L.M.A,O at that one, he he he Yea I just started using Alert Pay because the one site that pats me the most doesn't use Pay Pal anymore so I didn't have a choice I like Pay Pal so much better!! I don't know what happened they used to use it oh well I just have to wait longer to get paid with them I guess as long as it gets there that is all that matters. Thanks and have a great day!!

Hi jah! Well, our husband's don't know much don't they?hahaha!! Do you also get paid via Alertpay? I stopped using that provider and decided to stick with just paypal. Not every site accepts Alertpay money, right?
Anyway, good luck with your online earnings and the job hunt! I wish you well, my dear!

It is good not to stress out about things you cannot change. Stressing out can give you stomach problems and wrinkles.

That's right GG! We don't want to give those wrinkles a chance to develop, right?

Well I think with all of our busy lifestyles these days, there are many of us who can relate from time to time with having a limited time to be online. Maybe it could also mean having a limited time to be able to post here in myLot as well. Just because there are times like now, where I am spending more time trying to get caught up some might be the most I post for the next couple of days.
Personally I think overall even when you have a limited time that you can be online and such, it is important to make sure you are making the most of it as well.

Hi krause! When I'm online, I mostly visit Mylot and other paying sites. I rarely visit non-paying social sites, too.hahahah!
Thanks for your response. :)

I see. I am not really good in making blogs so i dont know if I would do good with Triond etc. But how I wish i was though, so that I could earn more and I will not be limited with mylot. Microworkers is not doing good for me, I dont have much available tasks. I dont know why they lowered down. Before I used to have about 40 available tasks, now I only have 6.That's weird. And they dont pay through paypal anymore, so I think I would quit MW.

So what's your next move kharlav? I'm actually looking for another social site that pays so I can share my links. Got any suggestions?

I've been doing a lot of Triond and Mylot lately. I plan to re-post all of my articles in Triond to wikinut, bukisa, redgage and expretscolumn. Right now, I'm trying to reach to a hundred articles at least in Triond. I still have a long way to go.
How's working with MW? I don't think I'm that patient with tasks my friend. Though I hear it's a good site to earn. Good luck with it!

Although I really enjoy being online I am one who knows when I have to stop. I can't force myself as I do not want to become sloppy. I can tell when it is time to stop no matter what. This is the reason why I do not set targets on any site as I don't want to make it a chore and rather enjoy the time I do spend on a site.

Good for you HWG! I don't like to stress out, as well. That's why I stop especially if the circumstances don't allow me. haha

I indulge in other activities, such as reading and listening to music. I go on line, when I get the opportunity and time to log in. Break from the on line activities is also necessary to recharge ourselves.

beingwell I will listen to my m sic on my computer if mylots down for maintenance then be happy when I can get back on. sometimes I have read or even gone downstairs and listened to the boob tube but if its something I dislike I come back up here and check if I can get on again,.unlike a lot of mylotters I really really do need the money I earn here although I love all the other aspects of
myu mylotting too I must earn as much as I can to put on the internet cable bill. I am in a retirement center paid for by my social security and ssi check so that takes most of my checks thus I look for ways to make more money and have fun doing it too. I also do mysurvey which I can do to make an extra ten dollars most every month .

Everyone needs a little time of the things that takes most of our time. For the past few months I have been inactive online because I just transferred jobs and was starting to get used to the environment as well as the job itself.It's been a while now so I am starting to do online activities again.

When I need to take a break because of stress I clean my house or do something of that nature. I only get to go online late at night so there isn't really much to do at that time of the night but either work online or clean my house. I have prepaid internet because I don't always have the funds for internet. So, when I have to skip a few days or even a month of internet I do other things that will be able to make me money when I get it back. I write articles for Triond and now I'm planning on opening an Etsy shop so I'll be knitting and beading and trying to come up with some other crafty things to do that I can sell. That way I'll always have something coming in and not worry about money so much.

I am on here quite a bit between school work and making money online. The only day I am not on here is Sunday. On Sundays I am busy remodeling the house. Our next few projects will only take us one day to do. I am painting my kitchen this Sunday and that will probably take a few hours to do and then I will also be painting my dining room which is bigger and tha may take two days.
Next week is my last day of classes for two weeks so I am hoping that during my two weeks off I will be able to start on my Christmas crafts since I will not have off for a while. I wish I did not have to be online for long periods of time, but with my husband working part-time we need the money.

Me too! I'm not the type to find a way to get back online, should that circumstance take place. Like, if the internet connection goes down, I just let it go, and watch TV instead. I don't want to saturate myself too much with the web.

Hi minoma! It's difficult to stop sometimes, especially when we're so into what we're doing. But you are right, we need to learn to let go when the circumstance suggests us to do so. Let's enjoy other parts of our life!hihihi

When I have limited time online it only means I have a lot of other things to do which doesn't entail the use of the internet. Getting online is a leisure habit for me and only do so if I got the extra time. But if there are circumstances wherein I got free time and the internet connection is inaccessible, I just go clean my room or read other books. But if the connection is accessible, I might as well go online and do some myLotting instead.

That's good to hear AG. At least, you're not being stressed about it when you've got the time and still you couldn't access online.

I can be offline for several days as long as it's not over a week. I think this is the reason why I like passive online incomes from Adverts on my blog, they let me have my offline time and still earn through traffic alone even if I'm not present. As long as there's not enough downtime and I can still update my website after several days, my online income will still continue.

That's very nice to hear goggles. From where do you get your traffic? Isn't it true that when you stop working your social sites the traffic also decreases?

I get stressed out so easily. Now that I have a job I don't worry about online earnings as much but am stressed out in other ways. I'm trying to find ways around that stress, and I have found just getting out, away from the computer and away from the stressors helps a great deal. I also just try to remember that my stress is all in my head, that I control it.
I hate when the computer acts up and I'm not able to do anything though.
