I also find it really demotivating when I'm on a bad streak, just makes me feel worse for not being good enough. But obviously other people feel the opposite
That's exactly how I feel sometimes. I have a lot of days (probably most days) where my brain is just in this fog that never clears up. I could be up for 12+ hours and still feel like I just woke up. It makes it incredibly difficult for me to focus on things, and I won't even bother with surveys or HITs with a lot of instructions because I have like no reading comprehension at all. It's very infuriating when I'm really hurting for money and nothing I can do will snap me out of it. Seeing a lot of high earnings posts on days where I'm really struggling with that can affect me very negatively, so I have to try to tune them out as much as I can.

I'm in the minority, but the way people use to post on this forum years ago made me a bit cynical about why they're posted. I also find it really demotivating when I'm on a bad streak, just makes me feel worse for not being good enough. But obviously other people feel the opposite
I get your viewpoint. I posted my PE maybe 2 times, but I felt like it might make someone new feel bad who was just starting out. I also am kinda old school in that I think what one earns for a living, in any job, is private. Since then, I have changed how I feel about others posting PE's. I feel it shows people what they, too, can do. It's all in your perspective. Though I don't post mine, (not that I am rolling in mTurk dough), I like to see people doing well, and I love seeing people improving. It makes me happy.

Pretty sure I could define like, the last 9 years or so of my life as being in some brain fog that won't clear up with a rare sprinkling of OK days

New guy here - have been working at this for about 2 months now. I really enjoy seeing the PEs. They are inspirational and have motivated me to keep trying.
How is it to start? I have been trying to encourage my brother to start but I'm scared he won't find it worth it because of lack of qualifications/completed HITs/etc.

Have you been having a difficult time getting up and going?

PE: $1.22
Bonus: $.05 for doing quality work.
I hope this cheers some people up, I just have to figure out a way to spend my $1.27. And for those struggling keep at it, get rest though first no matter what.
