How Many Hours Per Day Do You Work?
 

I don't remember a day where I didn't put in at least 12 hours. Today is 18 hours, it's 2am :Oh crap

12 hours

Some days more than others. Sometimes I'll go 36 hours straight, depending on what needs to be done and how important it is.

Overall I'd say 10 hours on average these days.

I would imagine there will be a lot of posts with 10+ hours. There aren't many lazy webmasters (that make money).

I need to do something about it. Been pulling 15+ work hour days for years :(

10 to 14 usually

Define "work".....

Most of the time, I love my job, I am my own boss, and I make decent wage.

I did that for a long time, then my doctor told me to cut the shit out. So most days I have a quitting time now unless something has a high priority.

too many.. but I love my work.. I generally work like 18 to 20 hours.. for 4 to 5 days.. then take a couple of lite days just playing around or learning new stuff..then back to the long day..

when I do photoshoots.. they are shorter days.. like 8 hours or so..

I got up at 7am this morning..it is now 1:30.. how long is that.. and I will be up for at least another 3 to 4 hours..

I don't consider what I do "work". I can go 24 hours and not feel it but I have a wife, dogs, and other responsibilities to attend to.

Actual work maybe 3 hours if that, fucking about on GFY, reddit etc. 12 hours+

Depends on the day. sometimes I do two or three days straight. Others I do far less.

i cant afford to work... :(

Until Panda hit, I was workin g average 1 hour per day. Now I am forced to sit whole fucking day and still there are no results (last two months)

By 'work' do you really mean 'Take a shit?'

If so, confirm here, and I shall post full detailes of my toilet routine, plus high rez photos of my bowel movements in said toilet...

You guys work? :eek7

12 hours in front of the computer, 2 hours actual work;)

.

three hundred and ninety eight

As many as it takes. That can be 2 hours, or 24.

seven/eight

Something like 20 minutes per day on average.

It honestly varies depending on what is going on.

If there is a new website/project in the works, I could be working 12-18 hour days until launched. Then it would tapper off from there. In a normal work week, it's anywhere from 2-8 hours (I am talking about actual work, not reading GFY or alike) depending on what requires my attention. I typically will take the weekends off (when possible).

I have hired and outsourced a lot the daily grind work, which has lightened my load. That does not mean it has making my life completely 'stress-free' though. It is a bitter pill you have to learn to swallow when you go this route. Most people's 100% is barely YOUR 25-50% effort by comparison. It is very very frustrating.

That said, no one will have the passion for your business like you do. Even if their pay check it directly tied to it, and their efforts on a daily basis. It is simply something you will struggle to cope with as a business owner if you want some sort of 'enjoyment' out of life via free time.

Making money hand over fist is lovely. I used to work 7 days a week, 18 hour days for YEARS! But you really need to take a step or two back and enjoy that money, and make time for yourself. When I hit my mid 30's I started scaling back, taking vacations, and hiring some people to do the daily grind. I would say the quality of life is better despite the annoyance and frustrations.

:2 cents:

Never more than 24 hours/day :)

Min 8, max 15.

10 to 14 on weekdays, Saturday a few hours, Sunday I'll peek.

work? what's that?

a few hours a day... working sucks... so I always try to minimize it

3-4 hours / day :)

So you do more than copy and paste links to articles here? :upsidedow

I put in 8 - 12 usually, 7 days a week.

Pretty much all day everyday.

If I go shopping or the ballpark, I am refreshing stats and checking sites, etc, to see if there's anything wrong.

hmmm... like 10:upsidedow hours per day for top 10 of hof imlive

5 Works to work 4 hours in the gym and 3 hours in my Family.

You guys are crazy. The bad kind of crazy.

I absolutely love the work I do but there are many other things that I do and love, so fuck 12 hours of work per day. When do you live?

From 2 to 14, it all depends...

Negative 4 hours. I say negative because I waste at least 4 hours looking at email, msg boards, facebook and stats. It's a hard life

not enough ;)

time flies when sites like twitter/tumblr/facebook/youtube exist

I'm not the only one drinking multiple pots of coffee I see.

I define work as being productive, btw.

Yesterday was Saturday and I worked until 1am Sunday morning. Sunday morning I was back up at 7am and worked until just now, 10am. I'll try to stay away from the computer but I have some other things I know I want to get down. Christmas is a busy time for me.

About 9-12 doing web stuff and a good 8 hours, recording. Though, the latter hasn't been the case, lately, with all this traveling...

between 0-16

Sounds like content that would sell well. Let me know when your affiliate program is up and running :thumbsup

4-5 hours, part time job :)

Monday through Friday between 11 and 13 hours
Saturday and Sunday between 4 to 8 hours each day
with an occasional all niter if I have a big project that I am working on

300 hours

Depends really. Anything from 8 - 12 hrs.

I always make sure though that i do less at weekends. I think it's very important that you can still seperate a weekend from week days...

I would like to get to this point, where my weekends can be more of the typical weekends. But, I would have to be comfortable with the amount of income I have before I can do this. Until then, there are no weekends, lol.

8+ on week-days not so much on week-end's

I try not to exceed 6 hr/ day, 30 / per week...(these days, before it was around 15 hours actual work per week.....)


too much computer is bad for health

cheers

Follow the Bible...

8 Hours Work, 8 Hours Play, 8 Hours sleep... = 24

N Chill on de Sunday !
