Making it to the February payout

Earlier this month, I posted my target to to reach the February payout and this is the update! Things are not looking well at all. Right after the 5 day break that I had for my short vacation with my family, the amount of work that I am having now does not allow me to have time to post as much as I have wanted to.
At the current moment, my earning as of yesterday is only $2.69 and I only have 14 more days to go. Not to mention that I still have to do some work at a client's site tomorrow. That would mean less time available for me at myLot. Yesterday, I did not post a single thing to myLot and I can expect that my Thursday earning would be zero!
Based on the remaining number of days, I need to do at least $0.53 a day in order to reach my minimum payout. My records this month shows that the highest I have done this month was only $0.55 and lowest is $0.00 and that gives me an average about $0.20 a day and that is not a good figure at all.
Do you think that I should abandon my target for February as my statistic is telling me that I am not going to make it or do you think that I could ignore that and keep on posting and actually make it to the payout?
Cheers!

Never abandon your goals! if you abandon your february goal then there is absolutly no way you will remain motivated enough to try to reach pay out for february. My february earning now total 0.42 as of yesterday. I was aiming to make payout, however with moving and being the birthday girl i spent many days either posting only once or twice or not at all. I am now trying to rake in as many referals as humanly possible to try to boost my earnings a little bit. However, none of my referalls have posted a single time -sigh-
this is alot harder than i anticipated

Well, I don't think that there really is a need for you to rush things. You may not be able to make it for February's payout but you might have more for March right? Just enjoy posting your discussions and responding to other myLotters' discussions. If you are too conscious about how much you do in a day, you'll just end up disappointed. *winks* Good luck to you shakeroo!

i never really set a limit for myself in mylot... i just try to enjoy myself and relax here... whether i reach a payout or not, i don't really mind... the money is just like a bonus for me... anyway, i wish you luck that you can get your payout this month... never give up... you will never know... just do what you have to do and whether you reach the payout or not, it is another thing... good luck...

I would keep going, doing my best to reach my target, because even if that doesn't happen, you will have extra at the end of March.
Good luck and Brightest Blessings.

I think that it is a great thing that you are setting goals for youself. I have been on mylot for kind of a long time, and have not reached payout yet. Right now I am at 9.48 so maybe this month I will be able to do it. If I dont though I guess that would be ok. Really I am here for the coold people that i get to meet on this site that i may not have the opportunity to meet otherwise. Good luck hope you reach your payout :)

I think you should persevere and continue on. You never know how quickly you may get to the payout. Just stick with it because if you don't, you definitely will not get to the payout required for this month of February. I do not make much at all from this site, but that is not really the purpose for me going to this website and for using it. I go here and use this site to meet new people, make new friends, and learn a whole lot in the process. Good luck.

I would just keep posting and if you make payout great but if not then thats okay too and your March payout will be that much bigger ya know....If you have more important real life things to do (your job etc) then I really wouldnt stress about making Febs payout..

I am not too far off from the ten dollar requirement. Less than a dollar to go but without any active referrals helping me, it is rather slow. Still, this is great site and I am enjoying the posts.

You do your post, I mean continue posting here you might never know, maybe a day after you exceed your average of $0.20 a day. Me i had done this before, and thanks to the interesting topic i have responsed with because they are the big helps that i achieved my pay out. I also have the same workload on my regular jobs but i had found the best topic here that relates to my interest. YOu might never know, don't give up keep on posting.

I think you just keep going. It doesn't matter you can reach the payout or not. Just do the things you used to do. If you give up, may be you even can not reach the payout at March.
Now what you need to do only post as much as you can! May be there is a surprise! You still can get it in this month.

It is not easy to make $10.00 in any one month ,
especially that month being February.
Keep pressing ahead regardless, if you do not make it , it will stand you well for March.
