The office space guys baffle me... Personally I didn't start my own business so that I could go to an office every day. Sure, working out of home takes discipline, but it's not that hard to manage yourself.

I get the same way. I love what I do but sometimes I hate it as well.

I don't think it's a discipline problem, but more of distractions. For me, I have my daughter, girlfriend, and random friends who think because I'm home, I'm not working. An actual office would end all that.

yes its boring but as long as you can get and buy what you need

its better than dreaming

Am I ?

cosis · 02-27-2009, 10:44 PM

bored? yes at times however I have worked before and if I had to choose I would stick with the webmaster everytime. This life can suck or be awesome, it's up to you on how you make it.

cosis · 02-27-2009, 10:47 PM

also if you a webmaster make it a fucking point to leave your HOUSE!!! Otherwise you may have money but you will still be a fuckin hermit crab loser!

An outside office isn't that useful to the Euro guys as we work strange hours, to sinc in with part of the US day.
But, it does make you put in your 8 hours or whatever and then leave,
which is good for the mind.

CarlosTheGaucho · 02-28-2009, 06:44 AM

I wouldn't change anything, just that I would want to work over the daytime again and not in this shithole country.

My great friends need to wake up every day to a fucking corporation that's full of monkeys.

DarkJedi · 02-28-2009, 06:56 AM

Cherrylula is right.

you're bored because you're a boring person.

Ive seen the light a few days ago, i noticed i stood still in life.
In terms of doing this work is that i only did whats absolutely necessary every day (1-2 hours) and do nothing the rest of the day. I didnt get any step further. So yesterday i worked nearly 12 hours total, gonna see how this works out. Today ive got the same state of mind although some friends with a day off visited me for a while, other than that ive kept working all day and its a satisfying feeling.. im gonna keep this up.

so nico-t, do you work 12 hours per day now or back to 1-2?

I kind of went bored out of my mind being in the home office all the time. I wanted a change.

I still have my own 6 figure yearly traffic network that I can always go back to it anytime and it makes for a nice security blanket.

But for the time being I like the "structure" of having a "real job". Plus I'm paid extremely well and I like the people I work with. So for now I'm happy doing this.

I like that when I go to bed now, I'm actually tired and looking forward to sleep.

Just my

good post

anyway, the thing is that after years of dealing with stats, clicks, conversions etc, it's not that easy to start running a restaurant, to name a random exaple

an offline biz not only requires usually a much bigger investment, it also means you need to learn things from scratch... the experience from online adult gets pretty useless then

Diomed · 06-22-2009, 12:11 AM

It is boring and a bit tedious at times,

but it beats going to a 9-5, even though it takes more time.

I do get burned out every few months or so, when the work starts to take over your every thought.

It's fun using your imagination, but it definitely sucks doing all the small steps it takes to execute your ideas.

It's supposed to afford you more freedom, but it really doesn't.

You can only get too bored when your overly-wealthy or complacent, when your worrying about bills to pay it's a race to the finish line.

What kind of style should be this webmaster style ? Webmasters are not something special they have the same live like everyone
