So, I made it clear that my plan today was to work on Textbroker. I'm interested in working with one client and two teams today. Now, one of my favorite clients just added a batch of over 1,000 orders to the board. They only show up monthly or every few months, so of course, I'm going to work with them today. AAAAAH. I'm a little overwhelmed now. Like, I'm not sure of where to start on these orders haha. I mean, that's not really a bad thing. I'm glad there's work available, I'm glad I'm motivated to complete that work. But where oh where should I start? Please keep in mind that you can only take one open order and one team order at a time (but you can grab one of each at the same time). As I started typing out this post, I think I devised a plan for today. - I'm going to start with open orders I had originally checked out earlier. There were only a few of them left, so I'll grab whatever is left from them, if there is anything left at all. I actually have one right now, so I cannot check the open order board until I complete it. - Next, I'll shift my focus to the first batch of team orders. There are several pages of orders left (they'll add more as the number of orders decreases), but there are only a few that have really caught my eye today, so I'll take care of those before another writer on the team grabs them (and if they do, that's okay). - After that, I'll switch between the large batch of open orders that were added a little while ago and my other favorite writing team. The orders on the team are short and pretty easy, but I haven't had the chance to grab anything lately, and I noticed their numbers haven't been moving... which means other writers haven't been grabbing any orders. I cannot imagine how frustrating that must be, so I want to start grabbing a few a day to help them out. I'm glad for the variety of work though. It'll keep my workload from feeling tedious or boring. And with all that being said, I'm getting back to work. Take care, everyone. :) Photo Credit: Pixabay.

You are such a hard worker. There are days when it can become overwhelming. Good luck with it all.

Thanks! Yeah, the amount of work I have to do, or want to do, can be overwhelming. But I'd rather be stressed over that than no work at all lol.

@HazySue I'm learning to maintain a work-life balance, but I'm going to have to be a workaholic tomorrow.

@tammys85 I used to work every minute I could. I was a work-a-holic. I am glad I was.

I slacked off on my writing at Textbroker, the subjects aren't interesting this week. I'm going back today, to find out what's there.

I hope you found subjects that interest you. Have you checked out the various writing teams? I mostly work on the teams these days.

@tammys85 No, I haven't checked out the writing teams yet. Doing one simple 300 word writing is all I can handle, in 24 hrs.

I didn't work as hard as I would've liked last week, so I'll try it again this weekend. And I hope you can as well!
