Camgirl or not, we are pretty sure that you’ve already dealt with some type of misstep in your life – be it getting fired from your full-time job or failing a Math exam. Life is not made of pink, fluffy clouds, unicorns and glitter (I mean sometimes it is, but that doesn’t stop breakdowns from being sprinkled along the way). Being a cam girl is no exception. The sad reality of this job is that failing as a camgirl is sometimes inevitable – but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a rainbow at the end of the tunnel.
Sometimes you will have no traffic days, which will make you want to throw your computer over the balcony and times when earnings are going to be outrageously low. In the meantime, you need to know how to deal with failure, so that your mental health and emotional sanity won’t be affected.
It’s not always your fault
No, sometimes it’s really not your fault. Don’t blame it on you and dwell on it for too long, because this will end up damaging your self-confidence and attitude on camera. You seek to thrive everyday by bringing your A-game, but you can’t make people tip. You can’t change your rank and you can’t convince site newbies to take a private with you. As a camgirl, there is always an element of chance that you need to be aware of.
Brush yourself off – if you think the reason lying behind your lack of success is the way you dress, the way you talk or your inner thigh cellulite, forget about those. Those nitpicky details were with you on your best day too, so can you really blame them for a non-productive day? No, you don’t.
Keep your head high
The last thing you want to hear after a horrible, never-ending day in which you made a few dollars is “Try to be more ambitious!”. But remember, the things you don’t want to hear could be the mantra that will help you the most. Think about that dreadful day as something that you won’t allow ever, ever again.
Practice your tease a little bit more, read some more erotica literature so your dirty talk improves and put a bigger smile on camera. Try to achieve the climax of your potential as a camgirl. Of course, you can’t do it overnight, but each day is a chance to make a baby step – so do not dare put that to waste.
Failing as a camgirl ? Deal with it like a badass
As humans, our instinct is to focus on the bad things that make us feel like absolute crap. Although not all of us are into BDSM, it seems like the vast majority of this world’s population has a weird passion for letting the bad days get the best of them.
The cure? It can be either a night out with your best friends or a Netflix and facial mask day. But don’t look for a cure – transform getting over the negativity into a habit. Coping with failure is not your focus. Think about the fact that better days are ahead – no rain comes without sunshine at its end. Be grateful for what you’re fortunate enough to have. Life isn’t about the bad days.
Always remember – the only person you can count on in the cam world is the person you see in the mirror, so treat yourself accordingly. Bring more positivity in your life. Go for a walk. Order your favourite pizza. Take a bubble bath. There are so many things to choose from, so stop crying into your favourite pillow and do one of them (or why not, all of them).
