    How many can say that they actually work 12 h/day?

    I've seen guys claim that they actually worked 10-12 hours everyday but how many actually work that much? I mean I pull 10-12 hours all the time but half of those time I'll be surfing message boards, reading SEO or doing some other unrelated stuff. Its so easily to get distracted and you end up checking stats every hour, if someone does actually work 12 hours of actual work everyday. My hats off to ya.

        workin 12hrs a day is stupid

        if youre smart youll work 4-5 hrs a day and still be able to do everything you need to do, productivity after 8-10 hrs is close to zero

          Shit, I wish........ I work around 14-18 hours/day easy. When we get a big project with a tight deadline, that number goes up dramatically.

                Reading the boards I do, and just keeping the pulse of the industry is part of my job since 1998, so in reality, I'm always working hard, or hardly working if you are my ex wife.

                    Depends. If you schedule everything right (as in take breaks, eat, workout, etc.) you can easily stay productive. It just requires modifying your lifestyle

                      I used to work more than 12 hours a day... 12 would be taking it easy.

                      But ever since starting a family, I try to spend more time away from the computer. I still tend to do more than 8 hours (on week-days) but I make sure to get my quality time with my baby.

                          I think if some actually work 12/day and not making a mil a year is doing something very wrong, I don't even work half of that time and hope to reach a mil/year soon.

                                          I don't work 12, and I'm not sure that my income would increase in the exact proportion if I did move up to that amount... at the moment I've got myself a nice balance of lifestyle and $.

                                                    How many work fixed hours, either in a corporate or home office? How many work ad-hoc "as needed" at any time of the day?

                                                    I do the latter...

                                                      if youre smart youll work 4-5 hrs a day and still be able to do everything you need to do, productivity after 8-10 hrs is close to zero
                                                      I agreed, if anything that would take me 12 hours to get it all complete. I would hire someone to do it, I seriously can't find enought work to do for 12 hours because I have to wait for my coder or designer to finish whatever their doing before I can finish that project.

                                                      I admit am not doing everything am supose to but if I did work for 12 hours of actual work. I'll be a multi-millionare

                                                      I have knowlege and smart but no discipline... sigh...

                                                            Shit you're right, I don't have any deadlines and the only work I really do is starting new projects and finish project. I don't have many tedious task like video editing or making galleries, I hire people to do that. It doent change the fact that am slacker though maybe thats why I hire people to do that cause am too lazy to do it myself.

                                                              i haven't worked 12 hours a day since 2000 probably. sure there are days i'll do 12 but its not the norm. spent a lot of time working 2-3 hours a day max but that isn't good either. your income usually will slip, as mine did. if there is a guarenteed payoff, i don't mind working lots but i find i can put in 12 hours or i can put in 8 (and sometimes much less) and still make the same amount of money.

If you're working at a factory in an absembly like then yea... that is actual work but there just noway you find enought work in video editing and galleries to make up for 12 hours of actual work. Even so, working 12 hours on tedious task is pretty stupid if you can hire employee to do those task. Then again... its those hire employee that actually work that kind of hours and have to stick to deadlines but I also find it odd that employee works that much for a set wage, why not just start doing stuff for your own site? with working 12 hours, you should learn enought to start your own projects

I mean I pull 10-12 hours all the time but half of those time I'll be surfing message boards, reading SEO or doing some other unrelated stuff. Its so easily to get distracted and you end up checking stats every hour, if someone does actually work 12 hours of actual work everyday. My hats off to ya.

                                                                                          But then I come back, get online and slack off.
