What to do when your Burnt out

**kane** · 02-18-2013, 02:09 PM

When I get like that I try to take a few days off and do nothing that has anything to do with work. Watch a few movies, hang out with friends, maybe go away for a weekend and just have fun and recharge the batteries.

I load up the mountain bike and Nikon...and hit the trails. Fresh air, good scenery...lots of exercise. Flushes out the cobwebs.

Cool, I knew some of you went through the same thing from time to time. Good ideas, guys.

Go outside and get some fresh air. Walk or jog, take your doggy for a walk, etc. Go out with a friend or two. Treat yourself to a great dinner and good wine. Sit back a while and appreciate your own hard work and good business. Trust me it will do wonders for your stress level and help you focus when you get back to work.

Oh God, don't do that. I'm a retard, lol, haven't started back linking really, or advertising and I'm making a little over 1600 a month, just from directories.

Get into a routine of doing regular exercise. Cut down work hours. Less hours = less time for procrastination.

Also if you are burnt out, get away from your house / area for a day or two and do absolutely NO WORK!

Yah, doing the movie thing and have my girlfriend coming over tonight. Sometimes I think I bit off more than I can chew, doing my Paysites AND Big Directories. Full time job, that is for sure.

I wanted to build the adult directories and then have them just be turn key. But I am learning that to be successful at them, I have to update them way more constantly than I first thought. Like fucking weekly at the very least.

I do 6am to 6pm. Then 4-5 hours of news, fb, eating, whatever. Then back at it the next day with one full day off a week. Thing about not working and setting your own hours are that it seems like I get up an hour later each day. Sometimes I am waking up at fucking midnight and going to bed at 3-4 pm... Then cycle back to waking up at a decent hour so I can have a life outside of the internets.

If I had spent the past 8 years working on building traffic rther than doing 100 redesigns on the directories, I would be rich!
