It took some time but I finally reached 1000 posts! This was one of my goals this month, my other goal was to reach payout which unfortunatly did not happen. I have made $9.01 so far and earnings still have to be updated for today. I'm glad to have reached one of my goals, it keeps my energized and focussed to work with goals and I have a lot of fun as it feels very rewarding getting to the goal you have set for yourselves. I also use goals in daily live. What are your goals? Do you like to work with goals or just go with the flow; what works best for you?

Congrats. I have reached more than 500 posts this month and my first payout. The only goal I set for the month is payout.

500 posts in one month is a huge lot, great job! And congrats on archieving your goal this month. It would be great if I can reach 1500 posts by next month, perhaps that should be my new goal. All the best

The first 500 posts came in a little less than two months. Keep putting responses in a lot of new discussions and I think you will reach your goal soon.

100 posts sounds like a large but managable goal, good luck reaching it! It is very enjoyable reaching a goal and it fullfills you knowing you were able to do so :) People would be more happy setting more reachable goals and not one mayor thing that is hard to realize.

I did not set any goals for this month. I set several goals for myself for last month and I achieved them all. So, I guess I am giving myself the month off from goals here on myLot.

That's a great way around too and you deserve that for reaching all your goals :) There is no use in setting goals if you can't reward yourself and taking a month of goals can be a great reward in busy times. Thanks for adding to the discussion!

I see you are doing well on the way to your next goal, I'm heading towards 1100 pretty fast as I've been pretty active the last couple of days. I like having the spare time on my hand to be around on mylot for a bit more and add to the discussions, it's a fun way to pass my time :)

i hope i can hold on to mylot everyday at least one hour. it makes me feel that i am familiar with English. it makes me feel i practice it everyday. and i will feel i am wonderful. because i am not from a native English country and i have little chance communication with others. Earning extra money is not my frist goal. But it really makes me feel intrested. Congratters! and good luck to you. And i want to ask you a question. About how many hours did you spend for the 1000 posts?

Nice to have you around, I hope you make lots of friends here and improve your English. I'm not a native English speaker myself but have had classes in high school and college to learn how to write and speak English. That makes communication on mylot a lot easier for me personally. I am not sure how long it took me to get 1000 posts as I have had one large break from mylot (which was multiple months) and I started again pretty recently. I know some people can reach 500 posts in one month, it also depends on how descriptive your responses are. If you post one sentence, than you could easily make a huge amount each day, but that's not what we're here for. I guess aiming for 10 or 20 quality responses per day would be fair :) (depending on the time you spend here)

I have been paid out before, I just didn't reach pay out this month as I've been inactive for a couple of months due to personal reasons. I never said I wasn't paid out ever, reread my first post and you'll see ;) I've made $10.90 now but as it's allready july I will get paid the 15th of august ;)

It is very exciting to get to the 1000 post, it shows just how long you have been here-it also means you have earned something and that feeling of achievement is great. When I made 1000 posts, i checked my BR and was pleasantly surprised to discover I had 150 BR by the time I made 1000 posts,tht was again one good discovery-I know you will keep posting with the next 1000 post as a major goal!

Thanks you, it surely is exciting and I'm hoping to get another 500 posted in the next month. I'm not sure I will have the time to reach it but it's nice to set a high goal for yourself so you have somthing to aim for and not reach it too fast. That can be rather disencouraging in the long run. Keep up the good work and see you around!

Wow! It is sure is great to make your goals isn't it! Why I try to do is to post 20 a day! That is just enough posts for me in one sitting and then I may hit a few more here and there just for good measure. What I really like about mylot is the chance to meet other people and to find out what their life is like. Have you met any interesting people along the way?

I have met some interesting people along the way, there are so many different people around here with different interests, different educational leves, different races, different religions and so on. Sometimes I had an opinion and when discussing I learned to see something from another point of few. There are some very filosophical and ethical discussions out there :) It makes mylot a great place to be. Keep up the good work and keep aiming for those goals, you should make 1000 posts in no time! ;)

Try making quality responses and you might be denoted a best response which earns you more money too. Also try to post pics that reffer to the discussion. If you post a reply about wanting to earn $10 you might add a picture of a dollar sign of when you respond about kittens upload a picture of your cat for example. This will earn you extra money. Also start your own discussions and make sure you write them a bit longer and more descriptive. You should be fine if you take on some of these tips, good luck reaching your goal!
