I’m going thru the same thing, so I feel for you. It’s slow, but everyday you get better than the day before. I’m at about 9 months since my world changed (collapsed). But I’m getting better and so will you. My best tip may seem a bit obvious. Spend more time with your friends and family. The first 3 months, if I didn’t have my family, I would have been a nut case by now.
I hope-I know, everything will get better for you. And don’t get to upset if you give yourself a break. Its what the doctor would have ordered anyway. Take care, Ron

Derek, sorry about the divorce, I know it can be grueling. As far as taking time off, I would say there has to be a balance. Take a day or two off a week, but work regularly right? People get so vested into working on their campaigns for hours and days even on end that they completely block out life, then others go out for a day and come back a month later. There just has to be balance. But I think that comes from liking the work, almost like a hobby. Then again I could be putting too much thought into this, lol.

Haha, very true Paul! Leaving and coming back can be a killer. I had a friend that did the same exact thing, he was doing about 20k a month, and saved a ton of cash up and then just took a year off…this guy was tearing it up in AM, now he’s come back and he can’t get a single thing working for him…

He’s still trying to do things that worked a year ago…He’s very stubborn

There are things that matter more, however, you still have to realize that your business does matter very much as well and that’s why you need to be prepared. Without an income, things could get a lot worse!

couldn’t agree more.

I’ve been doing aff marketing full time since feb 2003. I’ve hit the 100k a month profit mark a couple times with different stuff and have over a million dollars in adsense gross earnings in that time so it’s not like I’m just starting out.

I took last year off after a really good run with home loans. when it started to tank I took the time off to do something I’ve wanted to do for a really long time.

guess what, the stuff that used to work for me DOES NOT work anymore. I’m now in the process of figuring out what is working and how others are banking as right now I’m not.

I agree there are things that matter more than business sometimes
