Sana nakaligo ka na. Sana happy ka. Sana nagrerelax ka. Sana i-seen ka naman ni crush.

Practice setting boundaries at work. Pansinin mo, when you learn to use your No wisely, people respect you more, your words and your time, because they see that you know exactly what you are doing, you are precise with your deliverables and you keep your commitment.

This year, let's make wiser decisions for our health and well being! All else will follow.

Happy new year mga ka-OT! Namiss niyo ba golden nuggets of wisdom natin o mas namiss niyo mag-work? Sagot! 😂

This is nice!

Mga ka-OT, here's a good illustration that we can study if we are looking into maximizing our OT pay for our financial goals!

Let's keep on spending retail time in learning things outside our day job. Study, ask around, seek help. 😉

❌You can't reach your long term wealth goals by just saving money in the bank.

💰Your wealth portfolio should be diversified and each investment/savings vehicle should have its purpose.

💰Your bank account is for your emergency fund, day-to-day needs, bills and expenses.

💰Your money for medium term goals should be placed in medium term investments, too. Bonds with fixed terms of 5-7 years can be a good holding place for money that you'll use after the given time period.

💰Finally, your money for long term goals should be placed in investment vehicles that have higher yields but need greater time in the market to smooth out any volatility.

🎖Use the appropriate vehicle for your corresponding wealth goal to maximize the growth of your money and reach your wealth goals sooner than later.

🤯 Not sure how to start investing or confused about what investment vehicle is right for you?

Doing your best, even throughout all of your most difficult periods of struggle, is the most important thing, you can do. Because this is what you are going to derive a sense of satisfaction and self-esteem from.

Struggle is an unavoidable part of the journey. Don’t worry. Nothing of what you experience is likely to be strange, or unusual. If you are struggling, then this is the most normal thing in the world.

Embrace it.

Live with it.

The only thing which is important, is that you keep pushing forward. Don’t let any of the obstacles, or any of the difficulties you are facing, stop you. Keep going, and eventually, you will reach your destination.

All of the greatest people in the world, have faced their own version of struggle. It is exactly the ability to embrace struggle and push through it, which sets apart world class performers, from the rest.

Don’t be scared of being a struggler. Embrace it.

80% of working people say they are cranky on Sunday because they know Monday is coming.

Let's cross the bridge when we get there.

There are two powerful things that the older generation would like to teach us - hard work and delayed gratification. When combined, goals are surely near at hand.

What does this mean?

Almost all of us already know how to work but it takes a lot of endurance and discipline to live simply and not give in to every temptation and lose sight of our dreams and goals. This age is specially hard due to a lot of distractions.

Kung kailangang mag-unfollow ng food accounts sa social media so we don't end up craving and buying everytime, let's do it.

Kung kailangang mag-uninstall ng online shopping apps to avoid unnecessary shopping, I'm with you.

Kung kailangang i-cut ang mga not so important postpaid subscriptions to be able to prioritize your savings first, please do it now.

Napakahirap naman!

Know that work is essentially hard and is not meant to be a comfortable process. May stress at pagod talagang kasama. Maging maparaan sa pag-destress nang hindi nasasaktan ang bulsa.

Do not be jealous seeing other people here and there living their best lives. Do not be ashamed if all that you can take care of at the moment are just your basic needs and barely your wants. Remember, you are just delaying gratification. It doesn't mean that it will not come. Makakaangat ka din.

Rupok is Real

Bear with me…

According to psychology, when people make decisions it is heavily based on value, specifically monetarily.

It has something to do with the fact that we value things that we care about and we care about things that we are emotionally attached to.

Research says that emotions - such as joy, anger, sadness, fear, love, surprise, disgust/disliking and liking drives decision-making more than logic.

Sabi nga ng The Huffington Post, “if you do not gather the information that helps you to understand your underlying emotional drivers, you are going to have a lot of trouble with your financial decisions”.

Kaya nga nainiwala ako sa “don’t make important decisions when you are very happy, very sad or very hungry.” Marupok tayo sa mga pagkakataon na yan bes. Alam mo naman, mahirap kalaban ang emotions, pero pwedeng-pwedeng i-manage. 😉

Parang gusto ko tuloy mag-ice cream ngayong maulan. Hayyy.

Proud ov us guys! May issue man sa pag-run ng batch job, servers na hindi ma-up, plus unli meetings na hindi pwedeng tanggihan, hindi matatawaran ang ineffort ng brain cells mo today. It's another Monday of a job well done!

Travelsick – (adjective) kung ang homesick ay matinding pagka-miss sa tahanan mo habang nasa malayo ka, ito naman yung nakakabaliw at helpless feeling of restraint na makapag-travel muli. 😭😩🤧😵
Kapit lang sa travel funds. Hold your horses. Keep it out of reach or better yet out of sight!
Ok din ilagay sa digital banks na may 4% growth rate. Nag-try ako niyan, kahit 1 month pa lang may small growth na, better than nothing at all.
Or try to open affordable and convenient investment schemes (gaya ng UITF at MF) ng mga legit brokers online. May features na low risk and no holding period, saks pag open ulit ng travel industry, nanganak na travel funds natin kahit pano. 👈😉

Feeling ko natatransport ako ng setting tuwing nanonood ako ng movie lalu na kapag sa sinehan. Parang iba yung time dimension sa loob. Alamoyun? Ako lang ba?? (Mag-aagree sakin couple friends ko.) Tapos para kayong mga batang excited mag-kwentuhan ng favorite scenes pagkatapos manuod. Then dun mo pa lang talaga magegets yung buong plot, thanks to the movie geek ng barkada hahaha. Nakakamiss din!

On the up side, nakakatipid tayo ngayon. Unli movies hehe.
