    Lightbulb What motivates you?

    ....When you have those days or possibly weeks when you just don't want to cam, just don't want to hear another "bb" or put on a fake smile...

    What do you ladies do to get motivated? Music, movies, etc...sometimes I just feel like blah and don't want to get on there at all.

    I felt like bleah! for the past 2 days.. its so nice out and the thought of sitting in the house, AGAIN and AGAIN depressed me..

    what motivates me is having a short term( and long term )money goal/plan..

    Thinking of the days when I made so money and thinking back it wasn't that hard..
    Thinking of the gifts I bought for my family and helping them out with cash..
    Thinking of how good it feels to have money in the bank, sitting there for ME, whenever and for whatever I might need them..
    Thinking of other people in this world who dont have this kind of opportunity to make $$$.
    Thinking of how EAZY it actually Is to make money in this job... smile, spread, Cash in LOL

    The Destiny's Child song "Bills, Bills, Bills" comes to mind.

    Money is the overall motivating factor for me. I just think about dollars raining down on me and rolling naked in it on my bed lmao

    I put on that show "Diary of a call girl" LOL. I have the DVD's and the current season is on demand, (which isn't as good as the first 2 seasons) and of course money is a motivator as well to me...but right now, I'm like blah. Probally hormonal...lol

    I had one of those days last week. I had gone all the way to Hamilton to buy a violin so when I got back here I was pooped! But on my way back i had bought a small amount of groceries (about $25 worth) so I told myself I had to earn at least that back tonight. I logged in, and boy was I ever glad I did! Made $118 in about 1.5 hrs

    I'm all about traveling. I just started to keep a board behind my computer/cam with pictures of many places I want to visit. So, while I'm in a show, dancing, playing or whatever, I look at it and get distracted from the possible annoying things I'm being told by guys... They think I'm smiling to them but, actually, I'm smiling to a luxury cottage at the Alps or a first class cabin in a cruise liner...

    What motivates me...hm.

    The house I just bought was BIG one...

    Any good music gets me in the mood...

    The BIGGEST one though - is my Mom.

    My Mom is so completely supportive of me being a cam girl and working in the industry. The reason why she motivates me is because she has SEVERE Crohn's Disease and I am telling you what - you cannot hold my mother down. She has had that since I was 2 - 37 sugeries later....

    She raised my sister and I on her own. No help. My Dad is a POS...I remember her working countless nights at a town bar the WHOLE time the bar was open just to get us what we needed for school and how much she struggled.....I cannot thank my Mother enough for who she is - because she has taught me to keep going - no matter what - keep going.

    This winter - I am planning on surprising her with one of her BIGGEST Dreams. She wants to go to Scotland. She's a biker - loves the highland games - but that's what she wants. I am saving money any chance I can get so I can take her there by her birthday next Feb and I am saving enough to where she doesn't have to worry about money for it. I have 6500 bucks at the moment and my goal is 8k.

    I don't know if I wouldn't have turned out so awesome if she didn't teach me what she did when I was growing up. My mother is my heart and it is time I give something back for all she has given up and done for me.

    That's really amazing about your mom. That also sounds like a great motivation for you as well. Sounds like your mom is very lucky to have a daughter so appreciative...especially considering how tough she's had it. Kudos.

    As for me, starting extralunchmoney was partly to make money (i quit my day job a few months ago)...but ultimately that's not the only reason why I did it. It's more what money can get me...which is freedom. I also like doing things which I can learn new things from. The adult world so far has been fascinating. Prior to starting the site I had no clue this world existed let alone the escorting, panty selling, and crazy fetish videos that's out there.

    I'm hoping to build a great product, make a little money, and also help others in the process. it's cliche, but when you feel like you really helped someone it's a cool feeling. I guess that's the "high" i'm chasing after...

    freedom, flexibility, PAYING BILLS especially because i feel so overwhelmed by them right now, things i want to buy, MOVING and getting my own place.

    sometimes when i feel really down and just can't bring myself to work - or even at other times when i want a sense of solidarity/when i am feeling a bit isolated and need to know it's not just me - i love to read things by/about sex workers. like books/memoirs by sex workers, sex work blogs, films and documentaries about sex work, etc. even just watching "secret diary of a callgirl" although i know it's mostly silly and not realistic it helps me feel less alone, especially because camming means some days i don't leave my house or i just go up to the coffee shop and don't interact w/people that much, and especially because there are so few safe spaces where i can be fully out as a sex worker. i've been at a retreat all weekend where i was totally out about being poly & a sex worker (i'm leaving tonight) and it's been an amazing weekend. there is something restorative about being able to connect w/people.

    What motivates me is school and finishing my education. Going to college and then grad school has been a dream of mine ever since I knew what formal education was! My ultimate career goals are what keeps me motivated, because camming has served as the liason between my dreams and reality! I know it's an investment that will pay off many times over so being able to pay for my college tuition is extremely motivating for me


    Whenever I need a little motivational "push" I watch some of the top girls on MFC. Some of those girls like Aspen and Devon really know how to hustle! After a few minutes of watching them rake in the $$$$ I'm determined to get my ass on cam and work my own hustle on camsites that work for me

    What motivates me are the accomplishments I have been able to achieve while camming, such as being debt-free and traveling. There are very few jobs that offer unlimited earning potential, while still having the choice to work when, where and how you want. It really does not get much better than that.

    This is what motivates me to get into camming and work hard:

    * Complete my transition into a female with everything and the legal documents.
    * Get my degree in Computer Engineering, and a masters degree.
    * Learn Chinese, German and Portuguese to get an interpreter's license.
    * Support my mom financially so she can live as she deserves.
    * Get a nice apartment.

    Yep, I'm transgender. I'm just starting Hormone replacement therapy but, thankfully I pass pretty well when I'm dolled up, that's why I wanna get into camming.

    And thanks (:
