Do you ever take a break from online earning?

I have found that for whatever reason, last week, I barely came onto Mylot to do some online earning and chatting. I don't have a reason why, other than maybe boredom? Has this happened to anyone else? If so, did you take a very long break or just a day or so?

I do several things at the house and in my garden. Besides, I like to read, I watch TV and I am currently knitting for one of my grandsons. So it is not usually a break for days, but for hours. I also have some days when I have to go to the hospital and that day I usually don´t look at the computer. Once in a while I go on vacations and then I don´t take my computer with me either.

Yes, I do sometimes take a break from sites that I earn from, but seldom will I take a break longer than a day or two. It is always a good thing to take time away from things in order to help keep your thoughts sharp. If you push yourself too hard it becomes easy to become burned out. Good luck to you going forward.

I think we all need a break from the computer altogether, I think we all get a bit bored with it all and have to get away from it sometimes and go out and do other things, there is a life away from the computer, well for a short time.

Over the past 12 years, I've had 3 acquaintances pass away due to health problems. ALL of them could have avoided it by pulling themselves away from the computer sometimes. I make it a point to walk away from the computer often. It takes a lot of work and time in the beginning earning money and the ironic thing is that most people do because the want the freedom to do what they want. I'm pacing myself personally. To earn enough for financial freedom (meaning for me is enough to retire on) equates to residual income and I need that much time to find dedicated people with the same goals. Cheers, Stan

I really make it a point to take some break from my online earning ventures, including here at myLot. However fun it maybe, we're still exerting some efforts and that could tire us out. If we're not careful, we could burn ourselves out altogether. And as much as I need to earn, my priority is still spending time with my family.

I am just new to mylot and I think that I don't have all the time to do online earning programs. Earning is good online when we are involved with a good program which will give us the opportunity to make money to pay the bills, buy the food, and spend for other needs. Mylot is one but it's not enough to earn much I guess. If I have the time, I will spend more time online as I learn to make money online. There may be time that I will take a break and enjoy life as normal like others. Have a great day ahead.

I DO take a break once and a while... lucky for me most of my earnings are kind residual so I keep earning even when I take a break.. Not like on Mylot where I have to type to earn... I have many items I sell and I often earn when I am sleeping and I don't have to be on the computer everyday to keep the earnings coming in.. Which is good or I think I would go crazy.

Hi sassy, that's may be due to the fact that you have just one or two sites to make money online. if you have a few more sites, you can switch between different activities, so that you will not get bored. I do not view Mylot as the main source of income online, since article writing is my main source. Other than mylot, I play game for cash too. It is very little money, but the game is fun.

I post on a few sites actually. I think it is more about having days where you may be feeling "off" or maybe had a rough night sleeping and don't have much in the way of energy to produce good quality replies.

There is a point that happen a few times where I feel bored of earning online. When that happen, I just do something else offline or online. I don't want to force myself when my mood wasn't even there. Besides, sometimes we do need to take a break and enjoy life.

A pleasant day to you, With reference to your main topic, ask for me, I am not taking any break from my online jobs. As I need to hit my aim and target so taking a break is not my language. As in I am working everyday, everyhour 24/7 online. Especially now that the first quarter of the month is nearly finish. I have an aim to hit, so I really need to do my very best to earn that much.

You only had a week! I was gone for like one whole semester of school! lol Online earning is something that isn't really for me. I used to earn a lot from chatting, mylotting, etc. But i just stopped all of a sudden. I don't have a need for money so i'm just here for relaxation mostly. I never considered this as a job so i just come when i feel like coming here.

I had. It was a long break. Not just on MyLot but most of my online earning site. Every time I get bored earning online, I go out looking for a job outside the house. Earning online is not boring for me because I'm multitasking, I'm watching a drama while having fun here in myLot.

Hi there sassy brat, Last February I kinda layed low in my-lot because my father came home for a vacation. It was really a great time, and i really made sure that I was available for my father despite my work. Anyway i think after today I will be more active here in my-lot and make sure that i do my share in comments and responses. Nice topic.

I really only get on here when I'm bored. Even when I'm bored, I sometimes find it hard to make time for this lately. To me all the effort you put into it for earning pennies a day isn't worth it when I'm waiting tables.

I do. Sometimes my mind just wont focus, but I never stay away too long. I write for a few sites, but-not being able to use the same material-it gets hard, and sometimes i just feel burnt out...
