Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
You ladies are such an inspiration. I've been feeling like Sisyphus because I keep having to take breaks from cam because of birth control complications and every time I come back to cam, my placement is pretty terrible since I can't cam consistently right now. I work my way back up in placement and then have to take a break again. It's really hard to stay motivated right now but I'm so inspired by y'all. I'm just trying to work on getting my hours per month back up and take advantage of any opportunities that I can to cam and log the hours.

Just want to pop in and say, to Cutie and Sha, thank you both for your help, encouraging words, and patience. I don't have a lot of friends in this world, and this job can be isolating and wreak havoc on ones psyche, so....I truly, truly appreciate y'all taking the time to explain shit to me and talk me down. It truly shows your beautiful spirits and I am, honestly, grateful. I'm only beginning my journey and I hope that one day I can be as inspiring to someone who needs it as y'all have been to me.

Hey, you get me emotional, ha ha ha!! Well, I am glad to help. Only someone who has been down and struggling, knows how it is, to need so bad for someone to lift you up and tell you that's gonna be ok if you don't give up.
I am trying my best to help, from my own experience and own mistakes. I am still learning along and share my ups and downs.
This forum helped the shit out of me and opened my eyes a lot, thanks to the contributions of other experienced camgirls in here. It's an honor for me to help, in return and be able to contribute with something here, even if it's just... motivation :)

Girl! It's really no sweat. I am happy to share any goodness I can. I am only seeing an increase in income as I'm committing to 8 hours a day. I took a very long break from camming to teach Spinning full time for 6 years. I came back to a 4 star cam score and no traffic. I was making pennies and my placement was nonexistent.
I knew I needed to change some things up. I knew I was going to need to apply new techniques to improve my lot. I knew I was going to have to put in those hours to be seen by potential clients. It's been slow going, but with the beats, positive affirmations, meditation, and self-hypnosis income has been increasing.
Like Cutie said though, slow days exist and accepting them helps keep a positive frame of mind. This week Tuesday & Wed I logged 15 hours and only netted a total of $38. But staying positive and faithful to 8 hour days has resulted in exceeding my weekly goal by 25% so far & I have 16 more hours to put in.
Now, keep in mind, the income increase has been slow going for a couple weeks. I have had to stay positive and consistent for 19 days. There were really good income days, up to $200 a day, and really bad income days, as low as $8 after an 8 hour shift. Cutie has suggested some great perspective: look at the bigger picture (the goal for the month).
You're doing things right by slowly upping your hours, incorporating positive habits, and showing gratitude. Girl, you just believe you will be successful, put in those hours, and you cannot fail. Trust. Keep your positive vibes up. You got this!
Oh, and since you have Amazon Unlimited Music, look into the hypnotherapist Anna Thompson. Her guided self-hypnosis has helped me heal. I have survived a traumatic childhood which required therapy for a number of years. In addition to therapy I have engaged in self-hypnosis. Girl, she is amazing at assisting in personal growth. Use that music subscription to the utmost. Girl, you have the world at your fingertips.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
This thread is so damn sexy. Love the ambition! Inspired work, focus, and positive dedication!
I started advertising my content and live stream on social media and my money is increasing! At this rate if I continue stay the fuck on, I will surpass my goals!
They key is to stay focused and keep going!
Meditation and binaural beats really help my positive mind to expand.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
This week has been my worst in like 6 months, as far as earnings. It doesnt help that I have been battling depression that has almost crippled me this week as well....but you know what? I still have something to be proud of. I have stayed the fuck on and done my hours goals every day this week. And I will say....its a lot easier concentrating on the hours and not the money as my goal. Now, I need to up my indy hours as well, but that will come in time. After spending so long in free chat (long for me, at least) im just so tired i cant even bother to stay logged into indy anymore for the day. Also...listening to alot of the suggestions for Binaural Beats and hypnosis etc has really helped me throughout the day. If I feel overhwhelmed, I take a little break, put my earphones in, and usually after a good 15 minutes or so, it levels me out. LOA is a struggle for me, to just let go....but i know that is a learning curve too. So....although money was awful this week, im STILL doing something positive to get me ahead of the game, that will end up paying off bigtime in the future. Just keep on and stfo!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
You're not alone, Dhalia, it has been dead for everyone. All my friends are complaining, my earnings were very low as well, sitting in freechat for hours. It's a very dead time. Since you don't splitcam, i am gonna tell you that all the sites are emailing the models and try to lure them with bonuses for the upcoming week, if they broadcast (imlive gives 20% of earnings if you broadcast at least 6 hours per day, streamate gives 10%, jasmin is saying that it's gonna increase the traffic bla bla bla). Why do they do that? They are desperate, because it's slow and models prefer to not bother and work less :))
You're not alone, it has been dead for the majority of girls.
Just stick to your schedule and be proud of yourself. It will pay off!!
-
Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
You're definitely not alone! It's been so dead for me this past week too. Yesterday was a brilliant day, but only thanks to 3 regulars. Apart from that it's been pretty awful. Just staying the fuck on and hoping for the best right now!!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I fell a little short of my hours this week, but not by much at all, and.....although this week was horrible as a whole, i actually upped my earnings on SM. Getting no indy shows all week (except for 1 LCMS show on Sunday) is what actually screwed me, but.....even as slow as it was, I still am proud i upped my earnings on SM alone, as that site is my biggest hurdle and my main earnings site. Starting tomorrow I am going to try my best to do 6-8 hours a day, all week, and see where that lands me. I may fall a little short, but its a huge improvement over the pitiful hours I have been putting in the past few weeks. Also going to keep working on letting shit go, LOA, utilizing positive affirmations and b. beats/hypnosis. Those parts are also difficult for someone hardwired to be extremely negative like myself....but it will come in time if I just keep trying. Im glad STFO worked out in my first week of upping my hours though!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I couldn’t more agree with everything you said... This week will be better * fingers crossed. Usually I can stay on and finish my hours but last week I couldn’t even do that. I’ve never had so many consecutive rude/mean guys come in to free chat, and then on top of that I was only averaging $20/hour, if that! . I was completely and mentally exhausted on top of battling some serious depression.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I just want to report that I have yet to JSTFO beyond 5 hours. I'm going to try this week for 6-8 hours daily and hopefully get to reap the rewards lol

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I'm being consistent with my hours and working before/after appointments (no excuses for just not working.) . I made my daily/weekly/monthly/hourly goals for 2019 and I am chasing them hard! I remind myself every time it's jack shit slow that it's the duration sometimes not just the amount of activity.
For example. I was on yesterday 6.25 hours and out of that at least 2.5 hours I didn't receive ONE message. Then I'd get 3 shows back to back. Weird days sometimes.

Wich is a great thing, I didn't have chaotic times to login and that helped. But I felt a little lazy after holidays, I also changed to night schedule, wich kinda got my body a little confused and I kinda slept a lot lately, but I allowed myself to take it easier, but I still stayed the fuck on.
I calculate everything by 2 weeks period, since 4 out of 5 sites that I work, work by 2 weeks period system.
Now that I noticed my progress, it's time to add again 2-3 hours extra. For the second period, I am gonna introduce that into my schedule and login 2-3 hours earlier.
I am gonna get back into the clip game so I'll probably take a day off, per week, for filming and editing. Or I will just stay online only 5-6 hours in the clip working days. I'll see.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I’ve been on vacation for the last two weeks, and today is my first day back on cam. Time to make 2019 a great year for myself and stay the fuck on for every shift.

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Sunday was fabulous and my highest earning income day. I met high goal by 4.5 hours and stayed the fuck on which ended with me doubling high goal. Then Monday and Tuesday were slow, but I made enough to exceed weekly goal by staying the fuck on. I took Wed off to engage in a whole day of self care. I plan to stay the fuck on the rest of this week to see if I can make double my weekly goal. I'm reading Thought Vibration (LOA in the thought world), practicing positive affirmations, and thinking what if-up thoughts: what if I attract two big spenders today. I'm in a positive frame of mind despite it being so slow. Gotta stay the fuck on!!!

You will, it took me 7 ish years :))) Never too late to organize yourself, but you just have to do it and prioritize work!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Tuesday and Wednesday I worked only 4-5 hours, because I was tired. Today I am energized again so... time for a 11 hour shift!

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
Today I just got enlightened. Sometimes I have the answers right in my face but I don't see them for months.
Sooo, every since I upped my hours, I became sedentary. I do workout, but that's not enough if I sit for the rest of the day.
Obivously, I gained 2 pounds with all my workout, because my metabolism was slow and being sedentary didn't help.
Also, my step goal on my Fitbit is 10.000 steps per day. My fitbit stats shows that in the last 2 months, my average steps by day reduced to... 3500- 4000.
2500 of them are because of working out :))).
And since I can't close all 5 sites every hour to do my 250 hourly steps, as the watch always pisses me off to do and I gracefully ignore that, I started to use a countdown timer. Every 2 hours I pause everything and I do 1500 steps. It takes me about 10 minutes, I just watch a youtube vlog or something and do a fast marching in place.
Idk why I haven't thought about that, it was right in my face.
I hope now I will increase my metabolism and also I will reach my steps goal. I really feel guilty when I see how little I moved. In a 10 hour shift, if I take 1500 steps every 2 hours, it means that I am making 6000 steps only during work. And another 4000 will be easy to do from workouts and other activities.
I feel like I just invented the wheel lol :))

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I'm trying to but damn 50 in 9 hours is brutal. Especially when 17 of that is a tip and another 5 a clip sale. It's beyond dead today

Re: The "Just stay the fuck on" thread.
I have failed all week to stfo....i def. let the dead, depressing week inhibit me, when i did so well last week, but....a new week is just a couple days away, so Sunday I am back on trying to up my hours. Today was the first day I have made low goal all week, so at least that is kinda motivating. Its just so easy to get demotivated when a week seems like a nightmare, so....right now i got to work on upping my hours not just when the week is okay. Gotta do it during the shitty times to. In time, in time.

Yesterday I worked 11 hours and made $60 :))) It's annoying ugh ugh :)) SO, yeah, just do your hours goal and don't stress about the money, look at the end of the month. I mean, not saying to not check your earnings :)).
