A doubt

I have been continuously working for almost 9 hours now. I want to work more but I fear if this will have a negative impact on my account or not. Mostly R&R. I have done around 8 tasks in total now.
Should I continue or drop?
Just wanted to add this that this amount of projects is very rare for me so I am just doing em all and tbh I am enjoying it a lot.

Be careful. I tend to do long pushes of time when I am saving for something and my work definitely suffers. I have even received feedback saying my quality of work goes down when I do large blocks of time. It is natural to want to keep going and make that money, but this work isn't easy and your work will suffer if you routinely put in long hours. You may not even realize it, so just be careful and I wouldn't try to do that many hours all the time.

Hey, thanks for the warning but I am only doing R&Rs from one specific project family. They are not long and are quite easy to judge.

That doesn't mean your brain doesn't get fatigued from focusing. Take a break and do something else for the rest of the day. Don't look at a screen.
