The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Hey guys, I searched and I couldn't find a Challenge of this nature, so apologies if it does already exist!
I often find that if I have a really good week, I struggle to keep up the motivation and energy to do it all over again, so oftentimes, I'll have a great week, followed by a really poor one.
The idea of this challenge, is simply to make more money this week, than you did last week, thereby ensuring that your profits will slowly but surely grow.
For instance, if you made $500 last week, you win the challenge if you make anything over $500.01 this week.
How you approach this is up to you, if you keep a schedule, you might want to break this down into days, ie; "Last Monday I made $100, this Monday, I must make at least $100.01" and so on. Or you might prefer just to keep the singular weekly goal.
You can include as many sites and eggs in this as you please.
Feel free to update daily or weekly, whatever suits you best.
I pretty much live in the "$500/week Challenge" thread, so a personal target for me, is to use this to eventually graduate into the "$1000/week Challenge" instead.
My week runs Sunday through Sunday (I'm a SM girl), so I'll be able to update what my goal for this week is later on tonight!
Please join me!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Okay, so I was really lazy last week, so my starting goal for this week is fairly easy; $301.30 to beat!
This *should* be easy peasy...
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Maybe I am the only one doing my own challenge, but I feel okay about that!
Landed on $390.57 last week, so I won! Hooray!
I really need to pull my socks up this week though, I've got an empty flat for a fortnight before I move back down to London, so I need to cam like my life depends on it! Which, I suppose it sort of does...
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I tried this challenge last week and I really liked it. I actually ended up doing much much better than last week, which is really encouraging! Ready to make it happen again this new week! :)
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I'll join in..
Last week was the start of school for my kids, and the complete change of schedule that comes with it. I made $0 because my depression and anxiety also kicked into high gear (something that I'm still struggling with on an epic scale).
This week I've made $59.80 so far and it's only the first day. It's a small amount, but I've got to start somewhere...Let's hope that I can keep my mental monsters at bay enough to make some more this week!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I'm in. Last week was horrid. $58. uggggggh. This week has to be better!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Yaaaay! I'm so glad to have company!
Day 1: $66.85/$390.57
This feels really doable this week. Good luck everyone! xxx
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Day 2: $71.17/$58!
I know that's a super small amount to meet the challenge with but it sure makes me feel good right now.
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I went from having two digits to three digits I guess. Took for fucking ever but hey... I'll take it.
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
im gonna join!! im only gonna count SM $ tho since i want to start making more there to move up in placement.
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Couldn't make it happen this week, got sick. :( I did push much harder than I normally would have when sick, which I'm proud of. Guess I'll try to beat this week I was sick and go from there since I know at least 2 days this week I'll be out. Hope it was better for everyone else!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I am IN for this.
I've been out for the past month due to adapting to chemo, etc. But now I'm feeling a bit better and its time to get back to work!
Last week-- 0
This week goal (My weeks run Monday-Sunday)-- 750
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Ah man, I failed last week $342.74/$390.57, not by too much though, and it put's my earning over the pay threshold at CMD, so I'll get a nice wee $100
I feel like I didn't see ANY of my regs last week, I don't know where they've vanished to, but it REALLY makes a big difference, it's so hard to stay motivated when making so little. I hope they come back this week.
I wont be able to cam Tuesday evening through until Friday night this week as my Mum is staying with me to help me move, I hope I can still manage to make something!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I was on vacation last week, so I think I've beat myself already. Can't wait to beat myself again after this week.
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I'm gonna go off what I make by payout sunday - sunday I think seen as I'm on dailypay for 99% of my sites
Last week: £78.11
This week: £16.82/£78.11 - exciting! :)

I'm a British lady too! Isn't it a pain when you're like "Oooooh! So many dollars!" And then the exchange rate leaves you like, "Pants. This is not as much as I thought..."
I'm doing really well at $263.49/$342.74, but only one more day to hit target due moving!
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Already beat my little amount I made last week, so I'm hoping to beat the week before since I might be on a roll? Hope everyone else is doing awesome too!

ahh yay! it is a pain haha, least with the pound dropping we get more pounds for dollars now than before lmao
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
I love this idea! I always aim for $500 and get so discouraged when I don't make it, or if I do make it do horrible the next week because my goals were too high. I'm just getting back from vacation, so I'll aim for doing better than my last week on SM: $370.
I kind of do something similar to this when I cam too. I have a calendar with my minimum goal for each day. I usually have it pretty low, like $50-$70 range. That way I can say I'll just get online and make that goal, it'll be easy, then I can log off. Once I've made that goal I usually keep going because the momentum is flowing, but its a good way to get some motivation! Each week I increase the goal. Right now I'm working on finding that sweet spot where its challenging, but not too intimidating to log on.
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Was able to beat the week before, so this week I'll be aiming for $515. Seems like guys are coming out of the woodwork with customs requests, so this shouldn't be too hard. Can't wait to see how awesome you guys are doing too! :)
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
well, cause I'm doing this based on when the money hits my bank, I didn't do well at all last week as all the money I made was on my non-daily pay sites
so I only got £16.82/£78.11
last week: £16.82 - should be an easy goal to beat ha
Re: The "Better Than I Did Last Week" Challenge
Last week I thought I was busting my ass and working a lot but when I added up how many hours I worked it was only 27, I was aiming for closer to 40. I'm at 18 so far for this week but I'm determined to work more hours than I did last week.
