Motto: 'Time is money.'

I never failed to remember that 'Time is money.' Does it sound greedy? I am sure some of you will say, 'Time is gold.' For me, it is the same principle. With this concern, I tend to teach online while doing other things at the same time. I am maximizing the Internet usage with my time online. What do you spend a lot of time? Do you own your time to earn money? Image Credit: lh3.googleusercontent.com

No, it is not greedy, time is our most important asset. We cannot buy time, we cannot stop the time and we cannot go back to recover our lost time.

I am glad that you do not oppose my way of thinking about time. As they said, 'We have to use it wisely.'

@LadyDuck I agree. You can add a perfect example of those people who are not working hard in the government. They are cheating the locals for being cheaters.

I've been editing a manuscript for a friend. When I get tired of doing that I either myLot or I read a book for a little while. That lets me have a fresh perspective when I go back to the manuscript. You sound like someone using your time wisely. *shrug*

I am using my time wisely. I honestly want a job that is more on writing, proofreading, and the like. However, it is hard to find this kind of jobs online.

@DaddyEvil I had seen some companies who hire people with such skills. However, they are not considered stable jobs online.

@Shavkat I understand. Most of the time you have to have recommendations from authors you've worked with before to get jobs like this.

Time is what we have to make the best use of it. Since we cannot go back to the past, time is moving forward.

Indeed. If time is moving forward, we have to go with the flow of changes.

I spend a lot of time on taking care of kids. When I can I take time with my online earnings and try to hit these small daily goals I have for them.

We may feel sad because of this phrase. But then, we can still do something about it. Unless time is not enough for a day or two.

You're right. I spend my time between earning on here, and doing other things online. I'm good at multi-tasking. The more time and effort I put into posting on here, the more I earn. I can turn a bad day around, just by posting.

That's one of the perks of being here. I was trained to do multi-tasking and effective at the same time. You can also add being efficient.

You said it right. When I was working in previous jobs, my colleagues knew that my time is precious. They cannot disturb me if working with my headset on. Thus, they respected me and the same thing for them.

How do you do other things at the same time? I wouldn't be able to teach and do something else at the same time.

How can you teach online and do other things? Don't students see what you are doing? I am interested to teach online, but I think that I have to practice English a lot. Do you need that accent to be hired?

They cannot see me mylotting while teaching online.

Multi-tasking does the trick for me. I think you can teach online, too. Most companies considered applicants to have a neutral accent. As for me, I am using an American accent.

@Shavkat Do you have an online course like TEFL? Do your students see you? Or do you only talk to them? I am so shy. Multi-tasking is a good idea.

yes. I chat here for money. let's admit it I use social media to get clients, so that involves money. I do my chores, it does not involve money. But the thing is, I don't waste my time.

All I can do to get money now is through the internet. Because the lockdown in our place continues to be extended. Unfortunately the results were not very satisfying. Maybe you have an idea to help me point out other generating sites?
