Hey there gang,
Well for most in the Asian region it is salary day tomorrow and what will motivate you more than just the love for work and supporting one's survival in this earth and helping family, it is getting to buy something for yourself, yes it is buying something for yourself may it be small or big, expensive or cheap as long as it is something for yourself that will be extra boost for earning more in the future. So i shall shop tomorrow, yeah just a shirt and 5 pieces of handkerchiefs.

It sounds like you have some fun plans for salary day, deodavid.
How often do you have salary day?
I hope that you're also able to get the help you need for your Lab and that he gets better.
It is good that you will also buy some groceries for your mom.

Well to tell you the truth most of my money goes out to pay off the money i paid for my mom's house a loan, and this is just the time that i think i actually bought myself something for a while now, well anyway it's just one shirt that that costs like $8 and i do care for my shirts for a long time so i think this is a good investment.

wow, i wish i could say those words too. but i resigned from work last april and decided to become a full time mom to my 7 month old baby. truly different now compared before when i was still working (worked for almost 12 years before i resigned), i might also say your words. haha! but yeah, shopping once in a while for yourself can be a motivation especially if you have a very stressful work. i had my fair share of shopping for myself before i resigned. now, i can't do that all the time anymore since i don't have a work, my husband is the only one working. sometimes, i do online shopping, but not for myself, but for our little man. love shopping for my baby boy. :-)

Hey there vanz,
Well life is tough nowadays and i think we have to choose between raising and caring for the family or work, i think your husband can handle the load of your whole life necessities and i think that he is a sturdy man, i wish your boy to be healthy always and to be great like his parents one day,take care y'all.

yeah it will like that acrossnation, well this is a gift to myself since i do think i work hard and i do deserve it most of what i earn goes to the people i love and compare to the amount i give to them this is just a small percent in comparison so i think i deserve it and i am very happy for it.

i agree, pay day's are a big motivation for everyone.Any and all jobs with output can really make a you feel you made a difference.Living in Asia life must be tough ,the money comes one way and goes the other, hardly any enough for an investment, yet if you collect little by little,spend less, you'll have an amount to be proud of.Happy earning!

Hey there arkhan,
Yeah i think that money is a good motivator in life to work hard as well as your loved ones that will benefit from it, and yes money is quite tough to earn yet so easy to spend but hey i am able to save enough and i am able to pay the debts i owe little by little that gets me by everyday.

I hope you have a nice shopping day tomorrow, it is nice when you can treat yourself something you deserve a gift for your own after your hard work. I have my salary every 5th and 20th each month well it just 6 days from my salary day. Actually I work for my parent that is why I can get my salary twice in a month 
. I dont have any plan for my salary, I will just save it in my bank account. I already have a new dress and a new tshirt, one of my dad's employees just back from Thailand and she gave me a tshirt and some souvenirs from Thailand so I dont really need a new clothes or anything right now.

Good for you fashion fever, well i have lot's of outdated clothes and some i am selling to a thrift store here but i'll do it next month most of these are still wearable but they are to big for me now that ive lost a lot of weight anyway this will be something that i will do mostly when i just need to get something out of my salary, most of it goes to paying debts and this is just a simple way that i can treat myself and stay a little bit more motivated i think, thanks for the comment.
