Well done Lucifer!!! That's the spirit!!!
Back and ready to start my 10 hours shift!! I really dreaded this, to the point where I am 1 hour late, because I really haven't slept 8 hours for a few days (only 3-5 hours here and there and short naps) because of some stuff I had to do and yeah... I was super close to not give a fuck and keep sleeping, taking the night off.
But then I realized I will wake up exactly at the hour I am supposed to go to sleep, so I decided to force myself get up. Thankfully, today I got no other plans so I will finally sleep 8-10 hours after work. YASS!!

Edit: 2 hours in, I am pleased so far. First hour was dead, then the begining of hour 2 brought a spender, then dead again, then I had another good spender.
Edit: At 3.5 hours I got hungry so I took a 45 min break to eat and also play a little on the phone. Back for 6.5 more hours.
Edit: At 5 hours, at half of the goal. It's dead now but... I got 5 hours left!
Edit: at 8 hours, it's been dead until a few minutes ago when a good spender came by. Hopefully I reach my low goal.
Edit: At 10 hours and done! Finishing at $14 away from low goal. Oh well, it's still good!

STFO all day. Made 40% of my goal so far this morning. Will run some errands and come back and get back on. Putting another hour or two in before I go. I think I got 10 more hours than me if I do shifts.

Hi! I posted this in the Fall Winter Hustler Challenge thread, but I want to post here too to keep myself accountable. It seems like this thread updates more frequently.
My goal is because I want to move and I need to earn $39k by Halloween so it shows the yearly income I need on my BoleynModels pay stubs.
My challenge is $39k in 60 days starting yesterday. This comes out to $650 per day. My average hourly income is $115-125, so this will be about 6 hours on cam every night. I don't mind working daily but I absolutely hate to push myself mentally or physically past 6.5 hours on cam so I can have days off. 6 hours I'm fine with, but 7 hours is too much for me. I currently work about 4-5 hours every other day so this will be a challenge, and I'll probably be sore and exhausted for about 2 weeks, like a new workout routine, but I'm a long time silent lurker on the STFO thread and it has inspired me that I can do this.
Day 1: challenge complete, Day 2 starts tonight!

Alright, 10 hours again!!! I only slept 6 hours, but I finally RESTED. It RAAAAIINEEEDDD!! Omg I have metallic blinds and the rain was making such a nice noise hitting it... I slept like a tank!! Let's see what today brings...
Edit: At 2 hours. 1 hour in and I already got $50 away from my low goal. LOL. Funny how this works, yesterday took me 10 hours to get at $16 away from it and today I had a good client and booom!!! Even tho it's dead and I only have 1-2 clients, I am excited for the next 8 hours, haha!!
Edit: 4 hours. My excitement died. I didn't make shit since then. But hey, 6 more hours still and anything can happen!
Edit: 6 hours. Between hour 1 and hour 6 I only made $5. Then a member came and I exceeded my low goal. STFO 4 more hours!
Edit: 10 hours... I was ready to talk about hour 8 and still not making shit when a super duper whale came by and spent like a maniac. Ending the day with 4 fucking figures.
As a conclusion, made just under my goal in the first hours, then 5 hours making $5 lol, then another guy exceeding my goal and then not making shit for 2 more hours, then whale comes by and miracles happen. YEHEHEEEEE! STFO!
Edit: I stayed on while writing this post and another whale came by lol. Ending for good now at 11 hours and an amount I haven't seen in MONTHS. STFO. I still can't believe during this shift today I spent almost 6 hours making $5. LOL. The miracle of sticking to the plan. Never fails.

Yesterday I had a vet appointment that I expected to take 30 minutes, but it took about 2 hours and then I had to go buy medicine so I didn't make it home until after 8:00 when I start my shift. I should have just showered and gotten on for a couple hours, better than nothing, but I chose nothing instead. Not off to a great start, but I will make it up with a few Sunday day shifts. I really like Sunday days on cam.
So far I'm $650.14 / $39k

I'm doing it again :headache:. Every time I get around $500 I stop giving a fuck. And I'm trying really, really hard to break that habit.
I got on early, early this morning (like midnight), and made $300-something. I fell asleep for about five hours because I was genuinely tired and then Igot back online. Now I'm at $561.
I've been bullshitting, really. Taking mad breaks, eating when I'm not even hungry, took a trip to Walmart, and just doing everything under the sun EXCEPT camming.
It's 4:18pm. I'm going to stay logged on no matter what until 8pm. I need to stay the fuck on!

Hey, do what makes you feel good! I am not a fan of updating but I know it really inspired some folks around here so I will do it for a little while.
Speaking of anxiety about earnings, i never look at how much i make per hour. I always draw the line at the end of the month, because i can have really good weeks and really bad weeks, putting same effort.

Edit: 2 hours and it's dead.

I’m not even gonna lie. I took about two different breaks that lasted far too long. BUT I kept re-motivating myself so money is still being made. I’m currently at $734.97, the most I’ve ever made in a day. Letssss goooooooo.

They were making me work for it :paperbag:. The crowd died in a complete and almost immediate way after my last update. Today's not the 900 dollar day I was aiming for but $737 is hardly bad news.
I'm tired. I'm hungry. I've got oil all over my titties and a cramp in my ass. I'm going to eat this bowl of chili and go to bed.

I haven’t been in this thread much mostly because streamate has been irritating me all summer and didn’t want to be a downer. I also wanted a bit more of a life heavy work/life balance this summer.
After an embarrassing week last week I went in to this weekend’s contest defeated. Saturday night I was publicly announcing that I would give it a month before planning my retirement. Glad I stayed with it. Daytime today wasn’t the greatest but Sunday was bomb despite dragging my ass to get on. Ended up in the top 100 after spending the last week feeling like a has been.
Pretty much depleted my work ethic after the contest end. In total the couple hours I worked was decent just broken up in little 30 minutes segments. I think my stamina will be better after this day off. I got it back to 2 hours on at a time Sunday. An unusual thing this summer.

I know what you mean. I can’t cam every day because I need at least one day off a week, preferably two, but then if I take two days off it’s even harder to get back into it. An object in motion tends to stay in motion is so true in this scenario. Where as if I’m working every day, it will become my routine and I won’t think about it… Maybe I will try say a month, of working every day to see how I get on. Ialready want to cry lol.
That is my plan for September starting today. I want to work at least 150 hours per month and do my workout daily. So I need discipline. I’m going to be online every day 6-7 hours and to do my workout for 30-40 mins, except 4 days of my period. I’m done with my exercises for today so now 6-7 hours STFO.
My goal for this month is consistency. Good luck girls with your goals!

Cutie101

Cutie, when do you wake up to start your shift?
It seems you are online 5 hours before breakfast wow
I start my shift at 2-3 AM and end it at 2-3 PM. Of course, with breaks in between for breakfast and lunch.
I wake up at 12- 12:30 AM. I tried all kinds of schedules but for some reason, my body loves waking up at this hour. It's the only time I don't really drag myself out of the bed. I mean, I still do, but at least I am functional.
My advice is, if you wanna pull a fixed schedule with long shifts, work it around your natural wake up time, don't force yourself wake up at traditional hours, just because. If your natural wakeup time is... I don't know, let's say 3 PM, then don't try fighting that and start work soon after that. Now, it varies by each person, what schedule they have, if they have kids or not (if you have kids my advice is useless lol), but you get it. Work your schedule based on your living situation.

New shift! 10 hours... let's gooo!!!
Yesterday I finally pushed myself to workout after work, I realized there's no way I can before work so it's my one and only option. I can't split work in 2, to workout at the middle of the shift, because it means I have to take off makeup and put it back on. Can't workout with makeup on, because I have an idiot skin that can't stand a little foundation with sweat lol. Soooooo, now I am fucking hungry. And there are 4 hours left till breakfast. I made a huge cup of coffee and a huge cup of tea, both with oat milk, to make it creamy and smooth. Does a great job!
Edit: 2 hours, made something ish... had 2 good clients. Not stellar but it's ok.
Edit: 4 hours and been dead. Had a loooong 1+ hour break. It would have been 1 hour, but my coffee machine decided to notify me to descale it so...
Edit: 6 hours... dead dead dead. Didn't make anything in between. Shiet... hoping for a miracle!!
Edit: 8 hours and... deadness. Yey. Gonna have lunch, put on 2 more hours, then get done with this shit. It's been so dead that I actually look forward to workout and release the stress lol.

I have nice set of weights on my balcony (finally!) and elastic bands and good workout program,but still can't find a time to do it! My inner time-manager just sucks ;D Though it's just an hour maximum. But when I do,I also prefer doing it after camming. Though I tried to do it in between shifts, but I lose my hustler mood after physical activity, lol.

Same here, I do a workout program. I don't go to gym because it takes too much time, I have weights and everything haha. I follow a nice program, tried it at the begining of summer and gave interesting results after just 2 weeks, but then I gave up lol. It's 4 days strength and 1 day HIIT per week, so it's great, I can't do cardio after so much time online, so strength is perfect for me, because i can take it easy. And I keep the HIIT day for the day off.
