Nasty Mae Dayao – General Virtual Assistant
Work from home is a form of self-employment that works on a project basis rather than being employed by a company. This type of work offers a more flexible schedule and better work life balance allowing me to work while enjoying everyday life. My family and I love watching movies and short documentaries at home via Netflix and Youtube. That’s why being a home based mommy will enable me to focus on my daughter and my family while also earning passive income for our future.
After finishing college, I started working to support my family. I sent my brother and sister to college and covered all our housing rentals, monthly bills, and basic needs. I’ve always dreamed of being able to give my mother her dream house, and that’s why working in the corporate world for a decade has inspired me to seek out new opportunities where I can use my skills and abilities effectively and be fairly compensated within a limited timeframe.
Currently, not only in the Philippines but also globally, Work from home jobs are rising particularly in the online industry. Many individuals like me are turning to have passive income and meet our daily family needs. As a beginner, I think this job will give me the freedom to work at my own speed and in a location of my own choice, depending on the compensation offered. It makes me productive not only in completing tasks but also being a work from home mommy who can take care of my family every single day. This will also enable me to develop new skills and motivation to create my own concepts in life.
Working in this online industry requires specific skills and abilities to market yourself and produce income. While it may be challenging for beginners like me, this industry can enhance my knowledge for future endeavors. As an aspiring Virtual Assistant, I can control my work without being restricted by company politics and can specialise in my own ideas. Some may say remote work doesn’t require professionalism and it’s just a matter of using a computer that works with the help of different platforms but the reality is that working with various clients who live across the country or the world needs a high level of expertise and dedication.
However, it has its challenges. Income working at home is often unstable as it depends on project-based compensation. Being a Freelancer is a big decision. Transitioning from a corporate job to a home based job can be overwhelming, but my ability to spend quality time with my family while working at home is more significant.
