hi all here is my story. i'm starting to feel a we bit overwhelmed with working online, plus working outside of home, plus school and studying. its actually starting to stress me out. although this is the case, i can't let either of my options go. one, because i love the money i make online, two i have to work outside of home because thats my primary income, and three i have to go to school to be honest, day when i do feel overwhelmed im a bit cranky because i'm trying to get so much work done in so little time. what about you? do you feel overwhelmed with all you do working at home and outside of home? do share! thanks!

I don't totally classify my online activity as work, I mean sure I earn a few good bucks here and there, but its not a stable income like a real job is, because the earnings are iffy sometimes you earn and sometimes you don't. real jobs offer a set salary that's pretty much guaranteed if you work daily, but its not like that online. With that said yes! it is overwhelming trying to stay active online, and make time for life offline I find myself trying to multi task my other online programs and do all my household chores and prepare for college its becoming mildly stressful because I don't want to let anything laps its tough but from the way things are going right now it looks like that it can't be helped so now I just do the best I can online that's pretty much all one can do.

thanks for sharing. But I do consider getting paid online as work. I spend hours after hours online, just as i would spend hours after hours working away from home. Both methods are payable, but that just my opinion. again thanks for sharing!

Life in general can be overwhelming and for some it simply does not get better. I feel I go through cycles where I can balance of them at one time and then I have my moments where I want to sort of shut my eyes and leave it all behind. Of course we can't have to earn to live. But as you stated above maybe even one day of break or even just rest may give you some energy to tackle again. Keep it up though because after school is over and done with, which it will be then you can breathe a little.
