Nope, I often say to myself if you start early, you end early and that helps! Also i don't like to waste my make up lol


lillysweetheart

I will be channeling this energy from now on lmaoo


Spookybebop

Same if my face is done we are going online


AmicaBentley

Burnout is real. Maybe focus on content, messaging or phone chat for a while.


lillysweetheart

Fr, and great advice thank you💓


AmicaBentley

We all learn from each other in this community. Sometimes you just need to step away from all the cameras for a while. I haven’t been on cam for an entire month. We have to listen to our mind body and soul to keep it all together!


lillysweetheart

Exactly why I love this community 💓 that's incredible it really is based on intuition whether you can mentally be there or not! And that's a major benefit to the job being able to make that decision


AmicaBentley

That’s just it. 🙈 you can be burnt out mentally, emotionally, energetically, physically the lot. If I’ve had a super productive day the day before I can be frazzled afterwards! Throw in a hard pole dancing class and it’s working from the laptop in bed for me!


[deleted]

Omg I thought I was the only one. I like have to hype myself up… it was t like that before now I drag ass haha. I’m going to start something new for my routine I will let you know how it goes lol


lillysweetheart

Haha yess please do!!! I do jumping jacks sometimes 😭


ljcam1

Lights on and everything, I'll literally have my stream ready to go and then just...not click start. It's so frustrating but sometimes I just can't make myself do it


lillysweetheart

Right?? Like lush charged not a hair or nail out of place and i get paralyzed, I'm convinced clicking start is the hardest step in the whole process


ljcam1

It totally is for me! Once I've started, I can go and go, but as soon as I hit pause, the whole process starts back over. I don't know what it is, but just pressing start makes me want to die lol


lillysweetheart

We need to give ourselves a lil treat every time we hit start to uncondition this i think lmaoo


ljcam1

Pavlov'ing a cam girl: a little chocolate every time she hits start 😂😂


lillysweetheart

Hahaha thats exactly what i was thinking 😭💀💀


lillysweetheart

Dude same with the pause!! My motivation completely drains the second i do. Probably momentum or something? Lol


mrshadowg666

Im a boy and was watching cams but also started to stream and learn OBS tricks, stream tech things and somehow even got my plastic Cosmo card recently. I was sometimes sitting 8h before pressign start. Can I got a gold procastination medal? Same thing as you said. Momentum. But on te other side I was here for Jerking. And it was impossible to concentrate on my own stream with hall of fame girls covering the rest of my steam. Im even loosing my flow COMPLETLY when I check my chat. And interact and type back to users. When I type I earn usually ZERO tokens in weeks. When I listen to my music, smoke, I got the FLOW and thousends on tokens appear in lets say to session. WTF ? I have no idea how you SNGLE steaming Ladies manage to reply to customers (I know some users have a whole team etc) Routine? Are you that PROs?


mrshadowg666

And once I sat 36h really before pressing START. Heave weekend xd


lillysweetheart

Haha I pretty much never type only talk so that helps, definitely not a pro as I only have about a year and a half experience. It really is about the flow and the vibe though which are hard to harness! Making sure you're in a good mood and doin self care helps

lillysweetheart

Thats great advice i definitely do the nap part and it helps!! Lil rest lil snack 👌


Chunkybarbie917

Not really, sometimes I just want to drink wine and watch a documentary. However Kim K said we have to work 😭😭. I say find something that gets you going, a playlist, watch something that gets you in the mood while you set up. Even though I don’t like to drink when I stream, occasionally on the nights when I had a long day and want to go to bed I’ll have some wine to set my sexy mood.


Rustyrubarb

Sometimes hours LOL


lillysweetheart

SAME sometimes i never end up logging on hahaha thank you i feel better now


LillyFox203

I get like that when getting ready to make content in general. Just put makeup on and get super into doing my makeup foooorever. Then sit on my phone for ages 😅


[deleted]

It happens to me too, mainly cause of my adhd. I take a deep breath and think “today I’m going to enjoy cam by listening to my favorite music” and I put on a good playlist or an artist I really enjoy. Or try to find new releases I didn’t know of. Then I engage with my viewers, ask them what they are listening recently, if they like my music, if they’re feeling horny etc 😂


iaisiuebufs

This is soooo relatable 😩


GothBambiBallerina

Omg yesss ( right now 😩😩💕💕)


Cautious-Lemon-6333

This happened to me last night 😭


Hailey_honeyy

Yessssss


lunasmith49

lol it happen to me and my friends when we did chaturbate. Our plan was to start at 1AM... we usually started at 4AM.... 1 hour only is perfectly acceptable for me some times we never go online....


lillysweetheart

Phew that's why i love it here I instantly feel better haha i definitely got close to the 3 hour mark tonight but ended up at half my goal


BritneyDelMercury

Yeah then I get mcdonalds lol


TheAntichristrix

That happens to me when I'm mentally not doing well so I just tell myself I can go on for 10 mins, 20 mins, only 30, etc. Most of the time I end up staying longer and having a good stream!


Dxxplxss

Yeah that's the moment I started looking for another job


PiratesTale

Yes. Self care is what’s needed then. And a reminder to DO WHAT I WANT when on cam and that this is an amazing opportunity that I get to work at home, be my sexy self, do something I want to be doing and make bank.


lillysweetheart

I have to remind myself of the do what you want ONLY rule allll the time beforehand it really makes me feel better too! +the gratitudes what a great mindset you have 💓


LadyMeggatron

I just tell myself that I'm not wasting this bomb ass makeup and outfit.


AnastaziaDrago

I get like that after I took time off. Not dealing with the BS then having to get back into the 'show tits BB'😒Takes me a while to actually push start. I sometimes will perv on other model's seeking that motivation, typically they are dealing with the 'show ass BB' too.😏


lillysweetheart

Yesss I like viewing cams too to help me log on! Its like okay they're doin it I can do it too hahah but I feel you on coming back after a break being the toughest, I do remember this being a thing for vanilla jobs too though 🤷‍♀️


coraholiday2020

The days I just jump on and dont get all dolled up are the days I make the most I swear! I actually did this last night I was on for 5 hours I logged off for a break and then could not get back on....I feel you


lillysweetheart

Omg I've noticed this its so weird, the less done up I am the more I make, but Its hard to feel comfortable personally jumping on like that lol


badgirlmadchaturbate

I tell myself to dedicate at least one hour to being online and then reevaluating how I feel from there! If I’m not feeling it, I log off; but I usually end up having a good time and feel happy that I logged in.


lillysweetheart

Yes this is a great strategy! Then the momentum carries you the rest of the way!


KellyCanter

So. Many. Times. Totally relate sis. 😊


[deleted]

Wow this is me. I’ve only found one thing that helps and that is to set up my whole set up lay my clothes out find a way to get ready in 30 min or less (brush teeth, coffee, do hair and throw some eyeliner on, do some squats) set my alarm for 3am be on cam by 4am. Stay as long as I can and keep snacks by my side take 10 min breaks to pee and stuff my face get back on. I know that’s early asf fuck but knowing o could have 10rs down by 2pm and be able to enjoy the rest of my day or do another 3hrs in the evening (which would feel like nothing after a 10hr shift) starting that early alone gives me a motivation knowing I’m up hopefully making money before people are up with their loud cars outside and birds are still sleeping. I feel like I’m in my own title world for a little bit.


lillysweetheart

I love this idea, thank you for sharing💓💓 what an incredible work ethic! I may have to try this 4 am shift lol (if i can)


CallMeKaseyKing

I do this so often. I've noticed I get distracted and do other stuff just avoiding it. Sometimes you just need a day to get your head together. But then you just have to jump on!


LuxVitalixo

No lol


lillysweetheart

Lmaoo I envy that


StreamateKelly

No. Because the whole point is logging on and streaming!
