    Default HELP. I cant work more then 2 hours a night anymore. :(

    I use to kill it. I use to make $300 a night on a bad night, and was averaging $2500 a week. I cant even stay on Streamate past my first gold show anymore!
    In part because of it being pretty slow lately.

    I have things im wanting to buy, but every time i make enough to pay rent and bills, I quit and take days off.
    Does anyone els deal with this? Do you have any tips to help?

    My only advice is.... stick it out, set a schedule and work it like you will be fired if you don't. Personally, I can't get gold shows to save my life right now, and I know others are in the same boat so you might have to wait around for privates and exclusives. But you won't get any if you aren't online. I have found that breaking my time up into a day shift and a night shift has really helped my earnings and my patience.

    Really the only thing you CAN do is just get on more and stay on. What are the things you are wanting to buy worth to you? Are they worth sticking it out when it's slower? Or would you rather log off sooner and go without these things?

    It's really just a cost/benefit analysis and putting in the time to get it done.
    xoxo ~ Sarah

    i think you just have to get used to working a lot again, like endurance. when i take a bunch of days in a row off the first day back is horrible.. 5 hours will feel like 25 hours lol! but..once i get used to it i'm able to work awhile and the time goes by pretty fast.

    Ugh my schedule is so crazy right now I had a broken leg and it's finally healed I'm working for the next 20 days because I'm going on vacation in July. I use windows 7 sticky notes (I hate windows 8 ) and I put the date on each one write my daily goal and where I made money at that day below it. For some reason I always feel accomplished when I see how much I made on each sticky note and I constantly have to look at it because there all in front of my screen saver. Just be happy your schedule doesn't look like this.

    12 p.m. wake up
    2:30-10:30 Vanilla job (plus on my phone checking email and Skype setting up shows and custom vids)
    12:00-4:00 which usually turns to 5 camming and customs
    5:00 I'm dead lol I guess that's what i get for breaking my leg

    Just take hour breaks, every 2 hours.

    Is it possible that you are looking at the clock too much? Are you forgetting to have fun?

    I feel your pain hon. I am lucky enough to earn a decent amount when I am online, but more would be nice. I really want to join this gym and do Pilates in a climate controlled capsule, but it's expensive. I can't really justify the cost unless I work at least 4 hours a day, but it seems I am more content to just work my 2 hours then meet friends for dinner. Does anyone want to call me and yell at me to get on cam more? lol I'm only half joking! hehe

    On SM, I can only do 3 hours at the MAX or I'll start getting moody and ban all. I know it's hard to sit and look pretty in slow times.

    Wow, thanks for posting this!

    I am having the same problem. I love camming when I'm making money, but lately I feel like such a failure, ugh! A friend of mine made 500 bucks on SM yesterday in just a few hours and in that same time period I pulled 20 bucks. I'm truly happy for her but it does make me feel like a complete loser. How can I go from 300 dollar days to 20 dollar days when someone else on the same site, same hours, same connection, same computer, same hd cam is getting 1K every few days!

    I have a kid depending on me and only myself to depend on so I have got to suck it up and stay online.

    It does help seeing this thread though, knowing others are struggling with this same issue, and hottie, I think that's the key, building up my endurance again. I won't make anything unless I keep myself online and available!

    Find something that is interesting enough to keep you online at the same time that you are working but braindead enough to not take away from your attention while camming.

    Pintrest is the only thing that keeps me online while I am camming these days.
