Mandatory OT, Rest day OT, Holiday OT, Regular OT!
Say it anyway you want, it is still taking your time to spend to more important things.
A lot of people are working so hard to have better pay and most of us, render overtime to have a higher paycheck and who spend their time for another 5-6 hrs after their regular shifts. What do you hear them say about rendering OT?
“I will render OT to pay for my bills so that I can save my basic pay.”
“I am rendering OT because I want to buy this gadget!”
“..to include in our daily budget.”
“..to add in my children’s tuition fees.”
“..to pay for my rental fees for 2 mos.”
We have all our reasons and these are just few examples of what I normally hear from people who like to undergo overtime. Yes, we are getting higher pay-out every cut-off but what are we getting in return aside from a higher pay? Less time for our families, less time for ourselves, less time to enjoy life. These are some of what we are sacrificing when we render OT. I don’t blame these people because there are times that they are in a situation that they don’t have any other means to generate income, probably some of them don’t know how to manage their money well, they are the bread-winners of their families or sometimes incentives will just get you into rendering OT even in our rest days!
I, too, was an OT addict before. But when I looked closely on my salary and my life, I’m not getting a better output for my future. You will never know what will happen tomorrow.You are building the foundation of your future today. What you’ve done today will reflect on your future. Aside from that, I got higher taxes! There are times taxes just offset the 2/3 of my OT pay with which you will just be left with a small amount. I’m getting over worked and over stressed! I found myself staring at the mirror with bulging eye bags and asked myself, “Am I going to do this for the next 10 years?”
That’s how I started looking for answers that I will not going to give up my rest days just to be stressed out and do something better that can contribute to my growth as a person instead. And then I saw the community that is just right around my corner waiting for me to knock on their door. This community has opened up my mind and eyes to see the opportunities in front of me. It first changed my thoughts then gave me positive results. I was able to properly manage my money that I don’t need to spend my time to render OT. I have something better to do which I enjoy and I am able to release my stress. I’ve learned a lot. Now I’m practicing what I’ve learned from the community by sharing it to others.
Now I want you to look into your life and check what your future will be if you will always use your time to render OT. Would this be the life that you want for the next 10 years? Isn’t it nice to see yourself at that time spending your life with your family and not missing any important day of your lives? Or seeing yourself going to different places with your loved ones?
Anything is possible if we will start changing ourselves and taking actions.
I will leave you a question to ponder: When do you see yourself enjoying all your dreams? Think of it.

I got these from a book, which was recommended by my mentors to be successful. Now here are the 7 Keys that I want to share with you:
• Back to zero
It is best to always start from scratch. In this, we will experience new things, new people and new knowledge to be learned. All we have to do is be COACHABLE. In our past, we've learned a lot of things like for an example you are a medical doctor, you've studied for 8 or more years to have your specialization, took the board then will be a resident doctor. But you will not be able to know more how to do things if you will not listen to the doctors who are already there, because books can just tell you enough unlike real people who are already successful in that profession can teach you more. Also in business, you will be successful if you will listen to those people who became successful in the business as well. Because they already knew and experienced a lot in terms of dealing with the business.
• Don't reinvent the wheel
We just have to adopt, follow and adjust to the working system and to the things that were already proven. This is how we can simplify things. Simplicity is learning from one's own, as well as from other's mistakes. Keep on leveraging on the people who know more that’s why we have mentors, coaches and tycoons who already mastered the process. In a game, we can't change the rules. All we need to do is plan and strategize what will be our move to win the game!
• Delayed gratification
Just be PATIENT! No SHORTCUTS! In order for us to be successful and master one field is to embrace all the knowledge and learnings. If you fail, then learn from it and keep moving forward. We need to be patient while we are still building our foundation. It is best to have a good foundation in building our dreams and see better results ahead rather than do everything in shortcuts and you will see that you dreams are just a wind blow away and you'll not enjoy what you've got in the long run.
• Be responsible as your own BOSS!
In life, we are the only one accountable for ourselves same as with career and business because you are the one who is making the difference not other people. You are not expected to be an expert immediately because you will still undergo a special process to be the best in your chosen field.
• Be aware of rejection
We should welcome rejection because this is one way or improving ourselves. And the more you are being rejected, the more you can be clear on the things you want to be accomplished because these rejections can lessen srepeating the same mistakes.
• Write and declare goals
PLAN, DECLARE, EXECUTE! Those are the words that I always hear from my mentors. We have a lot of new ideas and thoughts that come into our mind every day. Most of the times, some ideas are being forgotten because we can’t remember them. Having a successful life is being organized first. Clearly state your goals, write them down in a notebook, and then go to someone who will listen to your declaration. Just go to people who will empower you to achieve all those declarations. We don’t live with dream stealers, we need dream achievers.
• Never give up
In any kind of situation, we will always hear those words: NEVER GIVE UP in exams, interviews, business, careers, life’s obstacles, relationships, and in school. This attitude is very essential to achieve success. As they say quitter never wins. Just never lose hope, never give up and focus on your goal. You will never win a race if you will not run. Same as with life, your dreams will stay as a dream if you will not take risks and just easily give up.
One essential factor in achieving success is having the correct ATTITUDE. These are just basic 7 keys to build a correct attitude towards success. Your results will not depend on what happens in your life but on the kind of reaction you show to what happens.
