Expect Nothing.
« on: September 20, 2017, 12:07:21 pm »
When you expect nothing (and i don't mean join the dark side of negativity) when you expect nothing, then just about everything that comes your way is a surprise and hopefully, more pleasant than not.

....and that is what has happened to me twice this month.. the first time was last week when i was credited $12.00 that was offered to me last month as an additional incentive on a survey.. I sure didn't expect to get that so when it boosted my account, I was super overjoyed.

Well then, today, I clicked on a survey that was offering something over a dollar.... I was disqualified after a few pages of questions but OMG!, I walked away with .58 cents!!!

Oh wait, I said twice I've been pleasantly surprised, well i just remembered that 58 cent surprise as i wrote this so that's an add on... So really, it's been three times this month.....

.....so after I finished that disqualification, i attempted a few more surveys, 1 cent here and 4 cents there....
It was time to rinse my hair dye out of my hair, so I clicked to refresh my account and see my balance and it was way more than I thought it should be......

.....so upon further investigation, i see that there were 4 delayed payments from live sample surveys from July and August!!! that added $2.80 to my account,,, Just like that!!!

Expect nothing and everything is exiting... and yes, this all happened in the time it took to touch up my roots... hahahhaaha (and the hair dye was a free sample i got in the mail from doing a survey)

WINNING!!!

I also had a delayed survey credit, but mine was just 70c. But still, I'll take it!

It does help to expect noting, but is sometimes hard to actually do! I recently had a survey pay about 15 days after finishing it.

Wow that's awesome!  Yep, it's always a really nice surprise when you discover a payment you weren't expecting! I did a live survey today that appeared to lead to nowhere, so hopefully I'll find something in my account in the near future from that.  :)

I had one that finally credited after telling me that the system had an internal error after I finished the survey.

It's nice to have those kinds of surprises!  The twelve dollar one must have been exciting.  I'm a great believer in the law of attraction, so I am not in the habit of focusing on expecting nothing, but I see your point. Whatever works!

I suppose that is one way to look at it but I do not want to go through life expecting nothing.  I want to have the attitude that if I put the work into something I expect something back in return.

If you like the element of surprise then I guess your perspective  is a good way to always feel that element of surprise in your life.  I like genuine surprises and not because I am conditioning my mind for whatever comes my way.  Definitely like to feel like I have so input into my destiny.

So very true! I did not think (had resigned to waiting another month) that I would get enough videos to qualify for enough paid to clicks in order to meet my non cash balance requirements-needed to cash out. I just finished six videos which will allow me to cash out upon finishing my paid to click tomorrow. Yay!! This is my thirty first post which means that I can also apply for my funding bonus as well. Kind of works that way in most aspects of life. I work as hard as I can every day with out any expectation of reward or praise. Last week my daytime job gave me a nice little monetary present and last weekend I was assigned the easiest project (on my second job) allowing me to make really good money for my family! I hope that these nice happenings do not spoil me or cause me to expect these things in the future.

It's great when that happens, I often forget about delayed surveys not crediting right away; move on to another one and am always surprise and thankful when they do appear, so I guess that's a good way to think when using FC site.
