Overtime Takers

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.
