Can't take a break!!

Like infinitehorizons said - start applying whatever you have been reading
start making some money.

Breaks will come naturally to you, once you start making money.
 
I like your spirit, but honestly you need to concern about your health, nothing is worth it than health ;)
 
When you overstress yourself, your production levels and quality of work drop significantly. You end up working many hours without actually producing as much as you would in a more reasonable amount of time.

You must understand that taking care of yourself means better performance in business. Keep that in mind the next time you go over 10 hours.
 
Haha thanks everyone! Today I tried to do a break every 2 hours.. but I couldn't do that :P

I did a 3 minutes break after 5 hours of sitting on the computer, and then another 5 minutes after 4 hours :D And I'm planning to do another break soon. The break is not long enough, but its better than always!! I'll try to scale it up to 5-30 minutes though!

But please suggest me what to do in my breaks :D Something fun! Thanks ^_^
 
If you've been reading for two months like you said, and haven't implemented anything yet, you will not be successful online. You can't expect to take months and months reading up on everything and then after you have gathered a database of knowledge, go and implement the methods and become a millionaire. It doesn't work like that. Start to implement at least a little bit of the information you're reading. Staring at the computer screen for 15 hours a day is incredibly harmful to your body. Of course people are going to tell you take breaks!

To me, it sounds like your 15 years old (if that). Now that's not a bad thing. In fact, it gives you an excuse to be spending so much time on the internet because you don't have a job or a family to take care of. Try shooting for a maximum of 5 hours a day on the internet "reading". I assume "reading" is browsing forums, looking for good mehods, then writing them down or bookmarking them. News flash. You can spend years "reading" and you will not make a single penny online. It's time to implement.

Im the same. I do not cook my food properly because I am behind a pc all day.
I do not get exercise. Last time I took a jog was over a year ago. I go swim occasionally though.

I cannot sleep at night because there are so many things I want to do. In april 2011 I landed in hospital for a month cause my health went poop.

Somehow I seem to be going down the same path again, but this is just so addictive.
I'm an information freak. Knowledge is power, that's my motto so I literally soak data in like a sponge and can never get enough. Making good cash out of it isn't helping either and just motivates me further. It's like a loophole I cannot break out of.


Here's my advice, start growing weed. I've bought 20g a month ago to try it out after some friends suggested it. It totally changed my life for the better.

I took breaks, I was able to sleep fine, my appetite increased so I cooked my food better and I slept like a baby. 2 minutes I was out while now it takes me 2 hours or more to fall asleep. And when I do I sleep so light a mosquito buzz across the room will wake me up.

Weed man. It's called god's plant for a reason. ;)

FAP? :D

No, seriously, go for a fast paced walk around the neighborhood to get your heart pumping. :) Keep increasing the distance every time.
 
The aim for IM is to live a better life with that money. You are doing it all wrong.
 
you say IM is your real job...
how much do you earn from IM while you destroy your body and social life?
nothing?
then your family is totally right, get a real job.
then you still can do IM besides but maybe it's better for you to have a normal job first.
 
Dude, obviously you know what you're doing is wrong, otherwise you wouldn't be posting about it on here looking for attention.

You're confusing the efforts your making in "learning" with actual work which produces real "learning".

Set a timer up on your computer/watch/cellphone to go off ever hour and get your bum out of that chair for five minutes. Seeing as you're not taking action on anything you're learning, you won't actually be losing out on anything.

Don't delude yourself any longer, you are not working and you are not learning.

Having said that, do something physical. Go help out your mum, she sounds way too tolerant of your infantile behaviour. Help her with the dishes, the laundry and the cleaning. Drive her to do the shopping or something. Then resolve to take at least one 'Action' when you come back and don't 'learn' anymore until you complete that action that will actually make you money.

You'll feel better about yourself when you get some balance in your life.
 
Let me get this straight, Your reading up on marketing methods for 15-17 hours straight, Going to bed then waking up and then spending another 15-17hours reading more stuff, Man that is WRONG.
I see from an earlier response that you could implement something now and start making abit of money but thats no good as you want to make alot, Let me tell you now that aint gonna happen, Stop F**king reading and start doing.

It sounds to me that you dropped out of college becuase you wasn't committed to making it work.
My advice to you is look at successful people on this forum, Believe me theres lots when you get past the bull s**t and try something that they are into.
Dont get me wrong nobody here will spoonfeed you but they will guide you on your way. But stop reading dude, Most of the stuff your reading is bulls**t, If something really makes that much money they wont share it believe me.
Try a proven method, Affilate sites, offer services etc, This will get you off the ground. All the best mate and stop reading that is dumb not clever.

Thanks for answering everyone!

Some of you told me to stop reading and start taking action, I totally agree with you! But making an affiliate website requires a lot of information, like finding the correct keyword and how to get your website to the 1st page of the google search... This is information I should know BEFORE creating my website! That's why I want to be 100% sure that my websites will be successful so I won't have to waste my money on a 10006th page of the google search. (Which no one will find)

And lets be honest here, I don't read 15-17 hours.. I do sit on the computer 15-17 hours though, but I also spend my time Skyping,MSN, YouTubing, Programming, etc...

In these 2 months I DID take action and I spent a lot of money. I did not earn much AT ALL though. But it doesn't matter anymore. I saw that it didn't work for me, so I decided to start learning affiliate websites because I believe its very good money and it interets me a lot. ( I started learning it 1 week ago). I'm not taking action yet because I do NOT want to spend so much money like before, and not earn anything. So I'll just keep studying, hoping to take action in a phew days!
 
Stop reading crap.. You won't learn how to make money on blackhatworld. You'll learn how to make money through trial and error.

The content here is only meant to give you an idea for where to start, beyond that you learn everything by doing. If you spend 17 hours a day on projects you'll make some serious money. If you read every bit of information on this forum and memorized it all you still wouldn't be in a position to just go and guarantee success.

There's also a lot of conflicting information, especially when it comes to SEO. You'll really only get the answers you seek when you try things for yourself.

Stop reading and start doing. Oh, and join a gym if you want some exercise, lol. :)


Hi!!! I really really need a suggestion about healthyness!

I'm "deadly" (with all the meanings) serious about Internet Marketing, and I've been learning a lot on how to make money! But the problem is that I sit on the computer 15-17 hours a day WITHOUT EVEN 1 BREAK!!

I'm very very very busy reading and learning about how to make money that I don't have time to take a break! I can't wait to finish learning all what I need to learn to start finally making money.

The best thing that happens to me once a week, is when I go poop... :D
Because thats the only way I feel like I'm taking a break and not wasting time.

I know some of you will tell me to "go outside" or to "Get a life", but I don't have time for having fun, I need to start making money, and after I succeed with making money, I will allow myself taking breaks :P

If you ask me about my eyes... I would suggest you not to ask! My left eye is RED, and the right one is REDDDDDDDDD (more red than the left one) LOL! Weird but true.

I'm experiencing this for around 2 months straight without getting out of my room! I know 2 months and still reading, but I believe I will get to somewhere eventually! And don't tell me to get a job because IM is my real job!! :P (HOPING!)

Sorry if this post wasted your time, I just love this forum to express my feelings ^_^
 
I have a twitter campaign running on my second computer and in the meantime I'm reading ebook about adfly. So I'm learning new stuff and at the same time making some cash.

Do the same thing, if you can't make money on your own yet, then sell some shit on fiverr or something. Just reading and not actually doing anything is not a good idea, it's impossible to read so much that you won't fail, you will and that's how you really learn something.
 
If you cant manage your time,that gonna effect your work as well.
You know that you should take short breaks but you dont do it.
Better start to for practising.
 
hi

at least you understand where it leads.

Remember: workaholics make less money than their colleagues that work only 8 hours a day!!!!

It is all about planing your time and not wasting it.

get an active g-friend ;)
 
If I had to guess, you're overweight and very unhealthy. Have you been to a doctor in the last 6 months? You need to exercise. Cardio to get your heart pumping.

I'm not trying to be mean, but if you're not careful, you'll sit in that chair till you die!
