Hey folks! I hope had a wonderful weekend! As I sip on my Sunday afternoon drink, I thought I’d pop in for an update.
Well I have some awesome news as far as my debt free journey. I landed a second job at a department store for the holidays! I got offered the job on Thursday and I’m super excited to start earning the extra income and taking steps to eliminate this debt. I know it’s going to be tough but I want to reach my goal to become debt free in the next three years or so.
I did have a call from a store that’s open 24 hours but I got a little nervous about working there because I know I would never get a break from work. Although I do want two jobs, I would like to have a life outside of my debt elimination process. Here’s a few things that I’m going to continue to keep in mind about working two jobs:
1. I’m going to have less time to spend money. I’m going to be splitting time between my full time job and part time job meaning I won’t be having too much free time.
2. I think that my seasonal depression won’t be so bad with two jobs. OK so I suffer from depression and it gets worse during the winter months because where I live it’s very gloomy during the winter months. With less time to think about the things that make me down due to having two jobs, it may bother me less.
3. Less debt = less worries. The main purpose of why I’m doing this is to pay down debt. A lot of why I can’t sleep at night is the debt. So this point speaks for itself.
4. I’m going to miss my significant other more. I won’t be taking him for granted because I’ll spending less time with him.
So far, that’s the list I have that will keep me motivated to keep pushing and working the two jobs to pay off my debt. I have goals that I NEED to accomplish. I have a tendency to work better when I give myself no other choice than to bust my ass and work as hard as I can.
Are you working a second job? If so, what’s keeping you motivated? How are you handling life with two jobs? I’d like to see people’s experience with this in the comment section!
If you’re thinking about getting a second job for any reason, get out there and get a side job!
Until next time. Peace.
