		<description>Pshaw!  &quot;I should be doing better at this point...&quot; says who?

You do what you can, when you can, when you want - it&#039;s your business.  We can&#039;t all be IM superstars like Grizz or Mikeman (who is a Cylon I am sure of it...he is a machine!) - just put one foot forward, worry about what you can do in a day, a week, where you want to be in a month - sometimes just breaking your goals into re-negotiated terms takes some pressure off.

Don&#039;t get discouraged, you have the right stuff, you just need to do what you can and not kick yourself.  I think just re-setting your goals a little lower, or re-examining them may alleviate some of the &quot;I should be&quot; frustration.

That sort of thinking (which I am *always* doing to myself, btw) is paralyzing, or can be.  So don&#039;t sweat where you &quot;should&quot; be, just focus on where you *are* and then where you want to be by the end of the day, or week.

Cutting the goals down in size can make the elephant-sized goal seem easier to eat.</description>

		<description>Well, I see a lot of positives in your earnings this month: 1) You broke the $200 barrier; 2) You AdSense earnings nearly doubled from the previous month and 3) You eHow articles continue to gain in strength.  Don&#039;t be discouraged - you are definitely moving forward! :)</description>
