It's mentally draining...and when we go 5...10...15...45 minutes without entering a paid chat, we can't help but think, "what am I doing wrong?"
It isn't always us. Yeah, I believe there is always room for improvement, but you still have to be you to do this job. Being a completely different personality would be utterly exhaustive. Just be confident in you. We are all suffering right now. Our average hourly earnings are down. It hurts. But whatever you do, don't get desperate. These guys can sniff that shit out from a continent away...even through cam!
I truly believe we need to stay true to ourselves, our personalities, so we can stay sane and work the hours we do. The money will come when the guys get over Christmas bills and tax returns start rolling in. The main thing is don't be wishy-washy in what you are portraying on cam. That can run your current custies off and confuse the new ones rolling through your room and wanting to get to know you
