I do....I think I automaticaaly feel that with a little more effport I will be able to achieve my target. It happened last month in December ,because I was at 6 dollar + and thought that , with some more effort I should be able to reach the minimum amount. It din't happen because I was so busy during the last 2 weeks that I could just not achieve my target, however, I am hopeful that I should be able to do it this month.. Does this happen with you all friends ? or do you just go on as usual? Have a nice relaxed sunday and happy mylotting

The first time that I was getting close to payment I did put in that little bit extra to make sure I made it. But these days it's more casual for me because I come on here for the fun so when I suddenly hit a payout it's a bonus. I probably do unconciously post a little more nearer payouts but I don't say to myself I need to up my post rate.

If I am very near the payout, say a shortfall of $1 or 50 cents, I usually do put in a extra effort, but even then some times I fail. It happened to me last time, and I was short by a dollar and half and even though I put in my best effort, I failed to reach the payout, and was able to do it only in the first week of the next month.

Hi rameshkumar, Thanks a lot for your response It happened to me last month not by a dollar but by 2 dollars...I could have reached payout , but was too busy to do anything for a week or so...Hopefully this month should be different - all the best..

I reached the minimum payout only once and I remenber I put an extra effort in the last week before the payout to reach it. Now that I have only 4 cents I continue posting a little.

No, I set the minimum payout at only 10 dollars.

I would have thought that you have been paid at least twice by mylot going by the number of your posts.Have you set your minimum payout at 25 dollars? I did it the last time and it was hard work to reach that , but when I did it was really nice...All the best to you and happy mylotting

Yeah, of course its quite natural friend. As we are getting nearer to the payout naturally we do more and more to reach the payout fast. I used to go behind task when i get near to payout. Good day friend.

Hi abhaijith, yes I agree- when we are close to our target we strive harder to reach it.I too have a done a couple of tasks earlier and found them really good. But unfortunately now most of the tasks seem to be of the reserved category....Thanks a lot for your response All the best and happy mylotting

Hi, You must have done tasks to reach your payout so soon.I remember when I joined there were no tasks ans our earnings were only through discussions and it took me a long time ( 360+ posts) to reach my first payout . All the best and happy mylotting

I haven't reached the minimum payout yet, but in my estimate it will take me another week. I feel I need to give more effort so I can reach it earlier than what I expect.

Hi nocturn, thats great ..You may be able to get more than your minimum payout. They give whatever is earned until the last day of the month, once you reach the minimum payout amount..This must be your first payout right? all the best and thanks a lot for your response

I've reached payout twice before and I remember I was putting extra effort in the last few days before I actually reached $10. I wasn't active every day until I reached $9 and then I tried to make $1 in one day but I didn't make it so I had to write some more posts the next day when I finally reached $10. I guess when you are finally close to your goal you are willing to put more effort to get there. That's probably normal way people think.

Hello, Kiran. :-) I already exceeded my payout of $10 since my current earnings now is $22+. I saw a message that I am now qualified for the payout and that they will process it on or before Jan. 15.I must admit that I am working (but, not force to) to hit $25 and see if I'll be able to get my first payout. I'm not doing task lately since I didn't see any that interests me. I'll be just answering comments to my discussions.Besides, I owe it to mylotters.:-) If ever it'll not help me reach the payout of $25 within 4 days, then, I won't feel any regrets.:-) Goodluck tou you, my freind. I hope you will reach your payout on time.:-)

...Hi kiran8. I look at my balance and I think about it, but I don't make any strong effort, because of the rollover. What I do have as a goal, is to make a certain amount in one day, and then see if I can maintain that amount. I saw a post sometime ago which did not quite make sense to me. The poster said that they were making ten dollars a day, maybe they meant a month. Because they only had four hundred plus posts and it would seem impossible to earn that much a day, with that few postings, unless there is a secret method to their postings? Please let me know the secret. :o) Thanks.

Hi artistry, I guess they were talking about tasks, but even then it is very difficult to make 10 doallars a day, more likely 1 dollar a day is more like it. But it is easy to make a payout every month if one is doing tasks every day. Earlier some of the article writing tasks paid 4 dollars and 2 dollars.I did a few of them . But I dont see such tasks anymore - all the best and happy mylotting

Hi monkeylong, Is this your first payout, then you must be excited.Here at mylot you get the entire amount that you have earned when you reach payout, like the first time I received 12 dollars +, since that was the amount in my account at the end of the month ...all the best and happy mylotting

I seem to work harder the first part of the month,lthan I do the last part of the month. The reason I work so hard at first, is once I get it, then I can slow down a little, as I would be close that I don'[t have to work quite as hard. And if I wouldn't get payout one month, then that is okay, as I would get it the next month. I do what I can, and that is all I can do. I won't push myself, as my post wouldn't be quality, and that is what mylot wants, so I strive to have quality everyday that I post. I know I can do it though, as it isn't all that hard even though I don't have any referrals. I would rather do it myseelf anyway, if I had some and they were inactive. I am enjoying myself and I hope to be here for a very long time. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Hi rose, it happens with most of us I guess. At the beginning of the month, one is all geared up to work hard so that you make enough posts, but,after a week or so the interest becomes a little less and so on....If one is nearing target then last days are very crucial in reaching it - i too have no referrals, it is one man/woman show lol and I am enjoying it - all the best and happy mylotting
