Since 2013, I am working in various online jobs. And since I am working in the internet, I find it hard to be productive. Being self-employed is a lot more challenging that I thought.
I have a good online work now. But I find it hard to be productive. I am still struggling with my online work now. But I am doing my very best to be better in my online work.
I reduce my time in Facebook. And 2 days ago, I find this very amazing website. Writing is one of the things that I am passionate about. And now that I am in mylot, I know that it will be easier for me to work here. Because if you love your work, you will be more productive.
I will still work on the website where I get most of my income online. But I can work 4-5 hours here everyday. And I am just so excited to work here. Because aside from the fact that I enjoyed writing so much, I can still earn some extra income from mylot.

Don't think of this place as a job because it is not. Think of it as a fun way to spend your time while being rewarded for it.

Be careful though, this site tends to gobble up rather a lot of our time because it is fun to write here. Communicating with people from all over the world makes working from home extra special.

Thanks for the reminder. Yes. I felt like working here can be addicting. But I am setting a specific time to work here. I think that can help me. Thank you so much.

That is so true! Once you start to interact here, time would fly by without you noticing it

You're right John. I am here for maybe 2 hours right now. And time really runs fast. I am just enjoying my time here.

I suppose a "Welcome to myLot"is in order... I agree with @41CombadaleRoad ... myLot has a tendency to get so much time without you noticing it...
BTW, your last name looks familiar.. Any chance you are from Western Visayas

I am about to leave job, live with mom, and working online, you know, I've been working in different corporate jobs and i still love to learn to be self -disciplined. This time i want to focus on working on my own, and I want to see if i have time, (we mostly feeling we have no time when working 9-5) then i want to know how can I manage myself. Cuz working online is not about freedom like many videos say, for me its all about how i can manage my time. Its good to know that u have a website that generate income already. cool! I hope i can be like u soon. Pray for me

@allenjames if any body thinks that and start working online, quitting jobs, and feeling like I am gonna be free then They are in the wrong place. Many people have been successful online is not all about they are today, they have been working so hard, determined to build up their own jobs. The only thing that online work will bring is, you will have no boss, not any boss at all, but you have to be a boss of your time.

You are right. Many people thought that working online is easy. But the truth is it is not easy. It's easy to find job online but it is hard to find a good website that will give you enough money to make a living. It is also about self discipline and time management.
