Ever felt tired trying to click and click in a PTC site and felt so bored and tired thinking we'll never get paid? What I do is to read motivational books and articles that tells how to keep going. Being inspired for me is just like food that keeps me sustained for a period of time until I have to replenish them again. What do you usually do to motivate yourself to keep clicking and make extra money?

I think that in any sort of business, on-line or off-line we need to have persistence and exhaust every possibility to build our business. There will be times when you will feel fud up and that it is not going to work the way you expected but my philosophy is that if we only build a business by a little each week, we are building and it is best to keep focusing on that finding more and more ways to build my business. I have been self-employed all my working life, and some things have worked well for me and others have not. _Derek

Nice input. "One step at a time" really is an effective way on how we can do things right. What did you do when you encountered the things that have "not worked" for you?

Depending on the business, if it has not worked after a certain amount of time - sometimes 6 months, sometimes a year, I will then quit, providing that I am not putting money into it. If I put money into something, then I need for it to work a lot sooner than that, before I will quit spending money. That is, I will need to see that there is cash flow both to me and into investment. If it is all investment, then and no income, then it is time to quit. If you get what I mean... _Derek

It's sad to read what happened to you. On the other hand, I am glad that we now have other methods of earning. Especially online. I am creating a motivational article, that is why I wanted to understand how everybody feels and thinks. It would really help me if you can share what you think of it as well. http://bit.ly/cgHeG9

The urge to be a millionaire motivates me to make money. I always thought that i had enough money and i was happy. I never knew that if you dont except you will not get anything. from the day i started expecting i have been getting it. I have created an image in my mind an abundance and i have been getting it.

I wait till I get my first payment over to paypal then that is enough to motivate me to keep going with that site. I like getting extra from the internet sites that I do. It adds up. I just put seven dollars from quickrewards into my bank account today. It will be used to buy cat food and cat litter.

Well, the idea of investment really drives me to put myself into it. THere are lots of business out there but it all boils down to rot off your money. I don't know if you guys are aware of the four business quadrants? The Employer-Self employed-Investor-Big Businessmen Quadrant. The first two quadrants put you to the poorest state while the latter are predicted to be millionaires. Try Networking.:)

Networking is something that requires either a lot of people or a lot of capital. I don't have both. Although it is nice to have a goal and making such goals as your motivation from time to time, what keeps you motivated when such a goal looks to far or when you feel the goal is not achievable?

I don't force myself, I am not motivated. Then I just give myself a break and don't do anything, because I think you need to have fun in the process too. So my advice would really be to work extra hard when you are feeling motivated, and giving yourself a break when you are not.

One thing that keeps me motivated and inspired to keep this money making online is my friends payment proof. My friend is earning $5000-6000 in a month online and he already owned his own computer shop because of this earning he even resigned to his job about 2 years ago. He is a programmer before he learn this money making online he set up his own forum and website and begin earning more and more each month he posted his payment proof every day in his facebook. Every day I looked at it said to myself someday I'll also earned that kind of money and resigned to my job too.

My motivation is that there's something I want to buy, I know I need money so I have to write reviews and make videos in order to get what I want to buy. I also borrow from the library a lot so I have plenty of things to write reviews for.

Generally, we make all things to avoid sleep and bored. It depends on each body. with me, I watch movie, play game. Certainly, there are always foods and Coke or cafe. We can do many works at a same time, such as, readbud, my lot, cloudcrowd, upload file....
