I cannot stop staring at the cents in my adsense account.I know i need to stop doing this and work on increasing traffic but i'm just addicted to looking at the income section, wishing it would spike.

    It's easy to catch yourself doing. Even better is when you get yourself to stop over checking and you do get a solid rise or spike. A full double take makes you feel silly an great all at once. Now go work on traffic

    Haha, I am guilty of doing this. I even have times of the day where I'm like it should be more/less by now!!

    All part of the fun!

    I am lucky that i dont have adsense account or i will just keep staring and it and not do the actual work which makes me money.

    Guilty is charged here too! But then I realize that $1-2 a day really isn't much and I get back to work...

    Hahahaa! I have the same problem. I check my adsense, I check my Youtube earnings, check my ebook sales. I even have an app on my android form that shows me adsense earnings.

    Guilty of this too. Its just procrastination. And a bad habit to get into but everyone gets excited with the little bits of money because it shows that what your doing is working and your mind wonders.... How much more?!?

      I had / have this aswell. To me it's nothing more than Mental Masturbation.

      Get K9 Security and Block your Backend sites till 8 PM, so you can't check it :-)

      After time you get used to it.

    I've noticed the more I look, the less I make. The more ignore it, the better I do.
