What is Your Motive?
 Being able to deal with setbacks and continue to
pursue goals despite obstacles.
Fundamental to self-motivation is understanding what motivates you to do
things.

Those who are motivated also find it much easier to moti-

vate others. This can be particularly important in leader-
ship roles.

Keep Motivated
There are two main types of motivation: ‘intrinsic’ and ‘extrinsic’ motivation. Finally, it is important to keep track of what you want to
achieve and stay motivated to do so. To keep your moti-

Different people are motivated by different things and at different times in their

10 WAYS TO SPEND YOUR 13
MONTH PAY WISELY
When Christmas season kicks off, nothing
excites a Filipino employee better than the
13th month pay and other bonuses. Eagerly,
you wait for it. In your head, you are already
planning on the things that you want to buy.
A lot of us use these extra cash to surprise
our friends and family members with Christ-
mas presents. Some use it to book their
much-needed escapade or travel abroad,
while others treat themselves with luxury
items and new gadgets.

You may have a list of ideas on how you’re going to spend it but don’t be a
one-day millionaire. There’s nothing wrong in buying your wants with your
extra cash but if you want a change then you might want to think again and
become a wise spender. Below are some tips from various financial advisers
on how you can make the most out of your 13th Month Pay.
1. INVEST IN STOCKS OR MUTUAL FUNDS.
Most Filipinos dream of earning passive income, and stocks and mutual
funds are the answer. They are among the most affordable investments for
Filipino employees to look into. You can choose from a variety of fund struc-
tures depending on your risk appetite and individual goals.
You don’t even have to be a stock market expert to earn from stocks and
mutual funds. There are fund managers and financial institutions you can
turn to who can manage your investment for you.
6 Communique December 2018

2. START A SMALL BUSINESS
Now is the best time to make a business idea come to life. You can use
your extra cash to open up an online shop, a homemade goods business
or a franchise of your favorite snack or treats. Or maybe you can try a buy
and sell business that’s easy to operate. It doesn’t have to be big already.
Just start with the money you have and make it grow through hard work
and determination
3. GET A LIFE INSURANCE
Take this as an opportunity to protect you and your loved ones from un-
foreseen circumstances such as a critical illness, accidents, or disability
and dismemberment. Let your 13th month pay cover the cost of your first
life insurance premium. Purchasing life insurance in the Philippines is one
of the smartest investments that you will ever make. Life insurance can
replace your income if you die. Your dependents can still enjoy the kind of
lifestyle they desire and your children can still fund their education thanks
to life insurance.
4. BUILD YOUR EMERGENCY FUND
An emergency fund acts as money cushion to help in you in case of un-
wanted/unplanned situation. Use your 13th month pay to open a separate
savings account you can tap into in case of emergency or urgent needs.
This emergency fund can prepare you for unforeseen events such as
healthcare expenses, home repairs, or even job loss.
Calculate your expenses every month. Your goal is to build an emergency
fund that can shoulder at least 6 months of your living expenses. You don’t
have to allocate your full bonus to your emergency fund. Up to 40% to 50%
of it will help you get started. Make it a habit of depositing even a small
percentage of your future income until you surpass your goal.
5. PAY-OFF YOUR DEBT
If you suffer from high-interest debts then this can be a good chance for
you to finally be debt-free. If there’s a pike of debt hanging over your head,
now’s your chance to settle the amount you owe, whether that’s credit card
debt, personal loans, amortization, or even borrowed cash from family and
friends.
You don’t even have to pay it in full, but you can use your 13th month pay
to reduce it significantly. It’s a great way to save on interest expenses.
Reducing or eliminating debt will help you start to build an emergency fund
and traverse the road to financial freedom.
6. BUILD UP YOUR RETIREMENT FUND
Your retirement fund is different from your emergency fund. Where the
latter protects you from unforeseen events in the near future, your retire-
ment fund prepares you for the more long-term future. As mentioned a
while ago, remove the money from low-yielding accounts such as your
savings or checking account, and put it in higher-yielding accounts such as
investments.
7. INVEST IN YOURSELF
You are your biggest investment. Don’t hesitate to spend your 13th month
pay on your career or personal growth. Consider using part of your bonus
to develop your talents or skills by taking a certificate
course, joining a seminar or workshop, or buying books
that will enrich your knowledge and sharpen your skills.
This will certainly improve your sense of well-being, widen
your horizons, and even open new doors for you. Who
knows, maybe you can supplement your income with the
new skills you acquired.
8. IMPORTANT REPAIRS
Your home may need a few repairs. For this, it’s best to
resolve these sooner rather than later. Taking preventive
rather than corrective measures may save you big bucks
in the future. If you put off repairing a plumbing leak,
you may end up spending big bucks when your flooring
or walls are affected by the leak.
9. DONATE TO CHARITY AND OTHER GOOD CAUSES
Share your blessings with others. Whether it’s donating
to your local church or a cause you feel strongly about,
never forget to give back. This develops the core value of
sharing wealth with others in need and teaches you to
appreciate the material goods you have.
10. TREAT YOURSELF
Lastly, spend on yourself. It’s hard to penny pinch all the
time. It’s important to prepare for your future, but it
shouldn’t be at the expense or to the detriment of your
present self. Decades down the road, when you’re reliv-
ing your younger years to your grandchildren or to your
friends during your university’s 50th-year reunion, you
don’t want to stand on the sidelines without anything to
say. Once you’ve made sure you’ve saved up for your
future self, treat your present self to something nice. To
have an easier time managing your ‘fun’ money from
your savings or retirement fund, have separate accounts
depending on what you’ll use the money for.
The bottom line is proper money management. Money is
not a means to an end; it’s a vehicle for us to do what
we want—whether it’s living a comfortable retirement
or going on the vacation you’ve always dreamt of. When
you receive your 13th month pay, don’t spend it all in
one go. Budget and plan it, and if you can, share it.
Before you head to the mall, think about how you can
turn this once-a-year bonus into a long-term financial
plan by putting your money in smart investments. Avoid
listening to the voices in your head telling you that you
need a new smartphone when you have a perfectly
working phone right now. Be smart about money and
spend your bonus wisely.

In Quality Management System, we tend to think that by

complying with the requirements or passing the audit is
enough to know that the system is properly and effectively
functioning. But that is not true at all. As an organization
striving for quality, our main focus should be on the cus-
tomers. In fact, the goal of the ISO 9001:2015 is to satisfy
and maintain customer relations. Customers define the fate
of the company as they are the start and receiving end of
the products and services we provide. No matter how good
our products are, or how innovative our technology is, if we
don’t take care of our customers or listen to what they have
to say, none of that would really matter. They would still
look for another supplier that can cater to their needs and
possibly exceed their expectation which could leave us to
trouble in our business. So, how do we identify and meet
these needs and expectation?

What is customer satisfaction?

This term is certainly familiar to all of us since
customer satisfaction surveys are utilized by
almost every business or companies. In MHPS-
TS, we know this as the survey form we send to
our clients every 6 months that indicates the
over-all rating of the products and services
from the point of view of the client. This has a specific criteria and degree
of performance. Also, in this survey form, we could also know the com-
ments and suggestions of our clients. In general, it is a measure to quantify
the degree to which the customer is satisfied with a product, service or
experience.
This allows you to make changes and fulfill their needs and expec-
tations therefore gaining their loyalty. Remember, the success of a
company is not always determined by how many customers you
acquired but by the number of customers who are loyal to you.
You may gain a lot of new customers every year but if you cannot
gain their loyalty, they wouldn’t come back. Loyal customers,
on the other had tend to order
products or services more than
new customers, thereforegiving
you better profit and more
importantly, credibility.

It’s that time of the year again! Along with the
little-bit-colder air and Jose Mari Chan’s songs playing
on the radio, comes the so-called season of love and
giving. And System Engineering Section (SES)’ way of
celebrating the season is setting the last quarter of
the month to hold its annual outreach program.
With the guidance of Ms. Zai of TABAK, our activities’
leaders decided to hold this year’s outreach program
in Sitio “Mapali, Danum” (t/n: Hot water), home for
over a hundred Aeta families. There are no schools
and medical centers within the vicinity of the commu-
nity. Also, the Sitio is subject for rehabilitation and
the people living there are subject for relocation.
With the help of the company, donors and volun-
teers, we have gathered these goods:
 15 full Sacks of Clothes
 110 Grocery Bags (5 kilos of rice, 2 Canned
Goods, 3 Noodles, 4 Coffees, 1 Family Soap, 1
Eco Bag)
 120 School Kits (1 String Bag, 5 Notebooks, 1
Whole Pad Paper, 1 Educational Book, 2 Sets of
Pencils and Pen, 1 Ruler, 1 Eraser, 1 Sharpener,
1 Crayon Set)
 300* Random toys and treats for the children
 250 Pair of slippers for adult and children
10
19 Communique December 2018
 120* Caps, Sombreros, Visors etc
 2000* Medicines and vitamins
 770 Seedling Packs
*rough estimate
After the time-pressured planning of the activity, collec-
tion of donations, buying school supplies, groceries, slip-
pers, etc., and sorting it, came the day of the activity, Nov
17, 2018.
November 17, 2018 (Day 1)
All of the volunteers meet at the basement of Robinsons
Cybergate Center Tower3 at 3:30am. We started transfer-
ring the goods from MTS’ 24th and 25th floor offices to the
jeepneys parked at the basement and off we go as soon
as we finished.
After hours of butt-aching journey, we have arrived on
our 1st rendezvous point, Junction, Capaz, Tarlac. There,
we grabbed our breakfast and met with Ms. Pia (Human
Rights officer, Capaz, Tarlac), who will help us with this
activity, and the Valencia family who delivered the 11
sacks of rice we bought from Pampanga. We then pro-
ceeded to the 2nd rendezvous point in Brgy. Bueno. Some
volunteers went ahead to the Sitio for the initial prepara-
tions while the others waited in Brgy. Bueno. After some-
time, our strongest workforce arrived, the Carabaos. We
loaded the goods, our stuffs and the sacks of rice to the
Carabaos’ carts. Some of us also rode it while most
walked for 45 mins to get to the Sitio. We need to pass
through a river whose flooring are the remains of the
lahar from the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 causing
difficulty to cross it.
Upon arriving in the Sitio, we grabbed our lunch and
helped with the preparation of our designated areas
right after. Dr. Ana, who was part of the 1st group to ar-
rive at the Sitio, wasted no time and started with the
medical mission assisted by the other volunteers. After
setting up, we have started the gift-giving program
scheduled for Day1 (clothes, seeds, groceries, rice, slip-
pers, etc.) to each family representative while the other
committees started hosting the games for the children.
Also, SES’ head chef, Francis “Chit”, along with the feeding
program committees started cooking the Pan-chit (Pancit)
and served it to everyone right after. *Yum!*
Those activities finished right before dusk. We were then
paired and assigned to homes that will foster us until we
leave. This activity let us live among them, eat with them,
and be one with them. Some qualities they have in com-
mon: they are kind, humble, simple, selfless and very
hospitable. They are closely-tied with each other. They
plant and harvest their own food. Also, they don’t mind if
people come and go in their homes and some doesn’t
even have a door. As per Ms. Pia, stealing does not exist
in this community. With that last line, I will leave you with
this question: “Are we really the ones who are more edu-
cated?”
Going back to the outreach program, we still have one last
activity for Day 1, The Solidarity Night. We gathered in an
open space along with the natives of the Sitio where the
only source of light is a bonfire and the moon. There, we
sang and dance along with everyone. The children, all of
them present, sang Ex-Battalions’ Hayaan mo sila. Yup..
they really did .. up to the last line. *EXBI!*
After that, we gave the children a light-emitting-toy used as
a projectile of a slingshot, a perfect match with the pitch-
black sky. The lights piercing the darkness along with the
children’s laughter is really a remarkable sight to see. All of
them enjoyed it, as well as the volunteers. *Lol* That ends
Day 1.
November 18, 2018 (Day 2)
We are advised to wake up early and to gather at 6am for
the immersion. This is to further know them by experienc-
ing some of the tasks they are doing on their daily lives. We
are set to go on a place where they pick fruits and vegeta-
bles and to visit a falls. We walked for more than 2 hrs to
reach the place. We picked some pomelos and paco (fern)
leaves along the way. We also picked some banana blos-
soms (puso ng saging). Everyone plunged into the water as
soon as we reach the falls, a real life saver since everyone’s
last proper bath has been over 24hours by then. We went
back to the Sitio after a while.We then immediately went to
our designated areas to prepare and begin the gift-giving
program scheduled for Day2 (School supplies, toys, slip-
pers, and clothes for the children) which is also the last
part of the outreach program.As a reward for everyone
and is the best way to end the outreach program, we have
prepared a boodle-fight-style lunch. The main dish is the
“Adobo ni Chit”.Before we went home, we conducted a
small wrap-up meeting for everyone to share their experi-
ences, insights, realizations and some small messages from
our foster families.
Final message:
For everyone reading this, what we have done for the Aeta
community is just a temporary thing. But what you can do
is help us in spreading the awareness that there, in Sitio
Mapali, Danum, lies a community, home for many Aeta
families. They are far from civilization. They have been de-
nied an easy access for medical help and education, but
what we mustn’t deny, is their right to live there.
And for the Aeta community, one of the things we want to
impart you is the thought that “somehow, somewhere, some-
one cares”On behalf of SES, we would like to extend our
deepest gratitude for the company, the volunteers, the do-
nors, the ones who led this outreach program and for eve-
ryone who extended their help to accomplish it. May you
continue to help everyone in need and we hope to see you
again in PAGLINGAP 2019.
