Addicted To Working Online

June 11, 2012 2:02am CST
I don't really have a question, just some random rambling that others might relate to?! Today so far I have been working online for about seven hours, and still going. Right now I am viewing a video for money (but haha I'm not really watching it) And I'm writing this post. I'm mostly writing this post to keep myself awake because I still have some online work I'd like to work on. And I needed to add another online job to my mylot profile, which I seem to be doing at-least once a week now. I need to limit myself to how much work I do online, and to how many new programs I sign up for. There are just so many and I don't want to miss out on earning money ya know? It really stinks that my B button on my keyboard is now sticky and stuck with tea, so its now hard to push. I didn't do it though. Anyway is online work keeping you up late too?

Yes, but it's only before since now, i'am not addicted in working online. I tried many sites just to earn money but none of them is what I expected, I'am only earning so little by little and i realize i'am just wasting my time before i reach a dollar. For now, i'am only using mylot and neobux which doesn't consume most of my time and serve as a past time only. I also think the same with you before that there are various way to earn money online and i'd like to try them, but i realize that for every site that i register, it is more difficult to manage. For those who don't have anything to do at home it's really better being addicted to working online.

I suppose if it is something that you do as a full time job, there is nothing wrong with working long or late hours online. One of the advantage of working online is that you are able to set your own time; so it's really up to you how you manage your time. I still have a full time offline job, so I don't really have time to be online as much as I'd like to.

That's true, it is nice to be able to set your own hours. I was working offline as well. But just the other day the company I was working for shut there doors for ever, because they were not earning enough money. So now I am back to earning money online full time.

I started to say that I don't stay up late at night working online, but, yeah, I do. I do like you do, "watch" videos, post here and sometime watch two or more videos at a time. Not much money in it, but it passes the time more constructively than staring out the window.

That's true :) If the house is clean and there is nothing good to watch on tv and you don't have to wake up early in the morning, than staying up late to earn money is a great way to pass the time. And yeah nothing good to watch out my window either.

I hope you have cleaned that button by now. Who did it? 7 hours is too long to spend on this kind of "work." It is good to get up frequently and take a break.

That's definitely what I need to do too. Schedule my online work around my personal life, so it all works out right and I don't become overwhelmed.

I relate to you on this. I have many sites I work online with. And MyLot is one of the main sites I go to everyday. I have this social network that pays that happens to be the best one in my opinion and has over 15 ways to earn there. Then I have a multitude of other sites that I make money with. I do know that MyLot and that social network are time consuming, but the other sites are not sites that take hours. So I could cram all of them into mane an hour or two and the rest of the time I am here and that other site. So I don't wind up working all day long into the night. Unless I want to.

It's mostly the short task sites and survey sites that are keeping me up late at night. What is the name of the other social site, it sounds interesting?

Depends on the day. If I spend to much time online writing and doing stuff I get burnt out and stop working for a few days. What seems to be working for me is to do different stuff on different sites or have a different task every day. One day I may be here on mylot other days I write for revenue share sites or find new sites that pay, some days I build links to content I have written previously. Stuff like that.

I am also up till late working on line, I have nothing else to do so do it for fun and money of course. I generally am online for 14-15 hours doing different things but ot after 1.30am generally. I am on a limited sites these days concentrating better and doing far better than doing a bit here or a bit there. I am enjoying it this way.

That's great! Yeah it does work out much better when you just concentrate your focus on one site/job at a time. I'm going to make a schedule soon for each job, how long I should spent on a site and what days. Hopefully that will focus my over active thoughts at-least on one thing at a time lol, we'll see.

I dont think it keeps me up late at night because i do have a regular also. I am just starting this online thing, but once i get the hang of it, and can put together a schedule, then i am going go be at it full time. I just need to find a couple more legit sites, free of course, that pays more than a few pennies a day. So for now I just do it on my break from my split shift and see how that works out.

That's a great plan. To work all the online glitches out and get a schedule before you go at it full time. Have you ever tried short task sites or survey sites? They are a good way of earning money online and they pay far more than 0.01 cent. I have some legit paying ones on my mylot profile if you want to check them out.

For me its not being addicted its the passion in working online. Being addicted is not a good word if your referring to earning money.

lol yeah I guess addicted was the wrong word to use. Its not like I'm gonna freak out or become sick if I can't do it. Maybe passionately addicted or a little OCD about it would be a better word choice. Earning money online is fun, and sometimes like right now its just better than sleep.
