Adulting Tips
1. Save and investment portions of you income. Have enough savings and emergency fund para kung sakali na drain ka na sa work mo, may budget ka to distress, like mag travel, kumain sa restaurants, mag shopping, and even umalis kung hindi na talaga kaya.. Have enough savings that can cover your expenses for months na wala kang work at nagd-distress ka.
You can leave any situation that you don't like when you have money
2. Have a life outside work. Don't make your work your whole life. Madaling maka burn out yan. Just be professional and do your well in your job pero after office, divert your mind and energy to other things
3. Don't take everything personal. Don't put emotion at work. Kung nagkamali ka, analyze the root cause and make corrective and preventive actions, but do not dwell so much on that.
By doing proper RCA, makikita mo na madalas process ang problema at need ng improvement. Best thing I learned sa corporate.
4. Upskill. Your knowledge and skills should not limited sa kung ano lang ang trabaho mo sa office. You should have other skills that can help you generate wealth
5. Use your HMO for regular check ups, dentals, and kung may include na free medicine and vitamins, avail it. Your health is your own wealth.
6. Secure your first insurance, especially health insurance. Regardless kung may free life insurance at HMO ka na sa company mo.
Life insurance - is kapag na-deads ka, may ibibigay ang company sa pamilya mo
HMO - kapag nagkasakit ka, minor injuries and sickness
Health Insurance - for serious illnesses that cannot be covered by the above mentioned.
Also, yang 2 na yan, valid lang yan habang employed, kapag nag-resign, syempre wala na rin.
6. Create a passive income while doing your corporate job. Pwedeng mag start ka ng small business, trading, investing. We are not forever in the corpo world, find a way to make money while you sleep
