Just To Give You A Headache

First and foremost, allow me to explain why my blog’s URL is davaojobseeker. Frankly speaking, the reason behind this is that I want to draw your attention, so that the moment you type “Davao City jobs” in Google, my blog will at least appear on the first page of the results. Clever, eh?

Yes it’s true. Now you fell into my trap, since you are already reading this. You may stop reading and close this tab immediately, then look for another site to search for the real Davao job postings site. Or you may continue reading, which I will definitely appreciate.

Most importantly, I want to share to you, whether or not you are looking for a job here in Davao City, my thoughts on matters involving probably the most important decision in life: thinking for the future.

“Play now, pay later”, that’s how most people live their life nowadays. Their common notion is that, since our existence in this world is uncertain, they want to make the most out of it by spoiling and indulging themselves with all the luxuries as long as their salaries can afford. Buy a brand new cell phone when the pay comes in on the 15th, then a new designer polo shirt at the end of the month. The spending goes on and on. Not to mention parties every Friday or Saturday night. Yeah, that’s how they live your life to the fullest…for now. How about the future?

But then again, they would simply respond, “So what? I’m secured with my job. I can do pretty much anything with my salary”.

But for how long will your job and your salary are going sustain you? And granted that you’ll ever get promoted to your job, would that guarantee financial stability for the future? And lastly, will you be able to achieve all your dreams with what you are doing today? Are you even doing something to get those dreams? Or are you just contented with what you have right now?

Although I am fully aware that I shouldn’t be minding the business of other people, but deep inside me I am dying to ask this question to any individual who comes along my way, especially those belonging to my generation (I’m just 21, by the way): “How do you see yourself five, ten, and fifteen years from now?”.

Stunted by this question, all of a sudden, you are drawn into realization about your present and future life. Have you ever thought about what would be your life in future? Where are you now in your life? Do you have any plans for the future?

Well, as I said earlier, I shouldn’t be minding your business because that’s your life. You know the answers to those questions above. But let me leave you one piece of advice. If you want to know your future, look at your actions today.
