I read a post a while back about having myLot goals. I had never thought about it, so decided to give it a try. I decided that I'd try for 900 posts total by the end of the month, and lo and behold, I did it!!! (I'm patting myself on the back right now).

Thanks! My goal next month will be to make 1000 posts, but that could be hard with the warm weather here, I'm less likely to be at the computer than I am to be outside enjoying it. We'll see what happens. I think it would be good just to make payout next month. I'm glad that you'll be making payout this month - congratulations. What's your goal for next month?

when i first started here i also set goals. It seems when you know your getting close to payout you always set the goal so you can make payout. This time thou as i have come back i have set a goal for myself. First i want to see how much we get paid for each post. Then i will be able to figure out pretty close the pay out for every day and be able to figure out and set a monthly goal of posts and payouts for the month. I dont know if i can get the 900 posts like you every month as i work full time but i will be setting some goals this time around for myself.

It took me about a year to get to the 900 posts. That was this month's goal to reach the 900 point. I didn't do 900 posts in the one month. I could never do that, as I'm too picky about the discussions I respond to.

900 posts in one month, hmmm let's see, that's 30 a day! That's some decent myLot time. Are you a super fast typists - if so that really helps, and a gift of gab soesn't hurt Did you start that many or was it your total activity? Either way, congratulations on making your goal! ...whit

Nope, it wasn't 900 in one month. It took me close to a year to get to this point. But thank you for your kind words.

My first mylot goal is to reach payout by tomorrow. have to earn 3 more dollars to reach it ,and I am posting frantically to reach it but i don't now whether i will manage it or not. till yesterday i was confident of reaching it but today mylot reduced my earnings by 11 cents, they deduct our discussions and on top of that they reduce our earnigs too . really sad.........

I didn't realize that they took money away from us. That just doesn't seem right. Why do they do that? I guess I need to start paying more attention to my money then, and see if any of it disappears too.

You're close to making 700 posts though, so that's a good way to end the month. Thanks for responding.

Thank youf ro your kind words of encouragement, and for posting. My next goal is 1,000 and/or payout for June. Since the weather is nicer, I'll be outside more, so that means less time at the computer.

Good for you! Were you able to cash out with that many posts, if you don't mind me asking? I have about $4.00 with 179 posts, so I'm hoping I cash out at 500 posts. That's my goal by the end of next week. I'm only on here an hour a day if that, so I hope that's a realistic goal. How long did you have to spend each day on here to meet that goal?

Well IK've been working on this for about a year on and off, between working full-time (back when I was working) to spending a lot of time in and out of the hospital. I've made payout a couple of times since then though, and I'll defintely make this month's.

Congratulations! Setting up goals is a good way to have a good life. It means we have something to look forward to thats why we are working very hard. This accomplishment is another inspiration to me. Remember: Set goals that are only attainable so it won't be frustrating. Congratulations again and take care =)

Thank you, and wow! how do you do 75 posts per day? maybe I'm just too picky and that's why I only do so many, who knows. Maybe my goal for June should be to be less picky about where I post and just keep on posting. We'll see how it goes.

Thank you for your words and for posting to my discussion. I've been here about a year, and just got to 900 posts. Some people can do that much quicker, but I'm picky about the discussions I respond to.

Thanks. I'm not sure, because it wasn't all over the period of ome month. I've gotten a couple of payouts, and will be getting one for May, whenever they come out.
