MyLot scheduling in my day...Managing MyLot time....

Greetings all out there. Wow you know MyLot is so addictive and I have found that you can spend all day on here. I actually had to put it in my scheduling so that I have a timer on it. This is so that I don't get lost on MyLot and 6 hours later I am still on it. Yesterday I did make the most money I had seen on MyLot so for those of you addicted it is a good idea. I used my calender through Microsoft and then a popup comes up and says ok time to do this. I know it seems a bit crazy to do that but I bet a lot of people get lost on this site.

You are so right that My Lot is addictive and one hour on it can easily turn into six hours. I usually go on to My Lot for one morning or one afternoon each day that I am free. I am sure that people start off using My Lot for a short length of time and then amount of time grows. People tend to choose a few interests like life, people, music and computers. But then other discussions about topics like cats, dogs, My lot and cars capture their attention. Before the person knows it they have more than one hundred interests on My Lot and they have made many friends from all over the world. My Lot is so wonderful and I am glad that you too are enjoying it so much. Well done for getting your highest earnings and using your calendar to arrange time spent on fantastic My Lot.

I had to get it on my calendar, my editors are going to kill me if I don't get my work in on time. This was just to get the word out there, to talk to people, to find "online" friends, and to have fun. Thank you for your comments and hope to see you around more, your words are very impactive and true as they are written well. Thanks for stopping by. Aingealicia

Oh yes we must learn sometimes, it is fun, you just loose track of time because you want to answer questions. Hoping it will help or make them laugh. Or you want to get questions out there. Have a great one there. Aingealicia

It truly depends on how much you post. However I have found a lot of good help in the money section for money to be made. I am on the computer all day because my job is on the computer. When I get my site up I will tell you and you can go look there too for some part time jobs. Aingealicia Oh yes and welcome to MyLot.

Yes I do! I think every one does. Even thought the earnings are not phenomenal or anything, it's still so interesting to read everyone's different views on things. It's fascinating. I don't actually schedule time to go on mylot but I make myself get up and do a load of washing, or the dishes after every half hour or so., or else I find that I've achieved nothing all day! I don't get as much time to be on mylot as I used to though, so I find this isn't really much of a problem anymore. Ha perhaps we could start a 'mylot addicts' club.

I so agree. As you see I have a lot to do as well and sometimes my job takes me for the day. So I don't schedule it in those days. However I got home tonight an this is my unwind time. So I will get it in when I can but if I don't have much planned I will have to keep with the schedule so I don't spend all day on here. I have found I enjoy the other people's points of view. I was so surprised to see I had new friend request. I think that was more exciting. I see this is a very good forum and I will be the first to stand and agree how we could prepare for a mylots addicts club when it is needed. We can all take turns at being president. Take care and thanks for the add. Aingealicia

This s a great idea. I had to do the same thing as you. I decided though that I would do mylot early in the morning or later at night but not during the day unless I absolutely had free time. I like what you did it will work for a lot of myLotter's I think.

I agree. Thanks for the comments. I am glad I am not the only one who had to do that. I am thinking that MyLot will be a night time thing when I am headed to bed. I have already been on for 2 hours today and I will be back tonight because I have work to do, but this was a test run and I see it will work. Aingealicia

Absolutely, I did that the other day and was like "wow, where did the day go? Didn't I have a story to get on?" It is a lot of fun here and welcome. Aingealicia

When I first started posting here, I was here all the time so I too had to make a point to only visit during certain times of the day when I knew I'd have the most free time and nothing else to worry about. It was difficult though, trying to visit mylot to make money, and then trying to do schoolwork. So, whenever I didn't have certain classes and nothing to work on, I'd visit mylot and make several posts and then see where I went from there.

I only do 10 post right now because that is all my time will allow. Then I head back to work. I try to make sure that I respond to everyone that responds to my discussions or the discussions that I have participated in. Take care and have fun, hope to see you around. Aingealicia
