saving money weekly

I came across a an idea called 52 Week Money Challenge. Let me share to you how it works. The idea is to save Php62,900.00 in 52 weeks(one year) and we start with only Php50.00.

What is it?

From the label 52 Week Money Challenge, it's a Challenge. It's about saving Money. It runs for 52 weeks (1 year). In a nutshell, you religiously save an increasing amount for the whole year.

How do you do it?

  1. For the first week, you save Php50.00.
  2. On the second week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php50.00 - plus additional Php50.00. That's Php100.00
  3. On the third week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php100.00 - Plus additional Php50.00. That's Php150.00
  4. On the fourth week, you save the same amount as last week, which is Php150.00 - Plus additional Php50.00. That's Php200.00
  5. You repeat the cycle for one year or 52 weeks.
  6. Enjoy your money.

Minimum Requirements:

  • Make sure you can wait for one year
  • You have an income for at least a year
  • You can afford to set aside the amount of the last week. If you are using Php50.00 as base, then that's Php2,600
Tips: 
  • Put it in a bank account to avoid the temptation of spending your money
  • Have a goal on how to use it when you are done. (eg. cellphone, project car, travel)
  • You can change the base depending on what you can afford. If you are a student you might want to start with Php10.00 or Php20.00
If you think this is not effective to you, then consider changing some of the parameters. Say, reverse it(which i am using). Start from the biggest amount(Php2,600). Or, if you have an erratic amount of income, then just choose what you can afford on the week. I'll be discussing this next time since i have just thought of it right now.

Happy Saving!

Prompt Analysis Using First-Principles Thinking (FPT)

Instead of memorizing existing prompt patterns, let’s break down Prompt Analysis from First-Principles Thinking (FPT) —understanding what makes a prompt effective at its core and how to optimize it for better AI responses. Step 1: What is a Prompt? At its most fundamental level, a prompt is just: An input instruction → What you ask the AI to do. Context or constraints → Additional details that guide the response. Expected output format → Defining how the AI should structure its answer. A well-designed prompt maximizes relevance, clarity, and accuracy while minimizing misunderstandings. Step 2: Why Do Prompts Fail? Prompts fail when: ❌ Ambiguity exists → The model doesn’t know what’s truly being asked. ❌ Lack of context → Missing background information leads to weak responses. ❌ Overloaded instructions → Too many requirements confuse the AI. ❌ Vague output expectations → No clear structure is provided. ❌ Incorrect assumptions about AI behavior → The prompt d...

What I learned from The Art of War: Winning Battles

 Every battle was won before it was fought - Sun Tzu on The Art of War People use this quote on different aspects. Some use it on business, some with their work, most of the time it is use in war. But this has more than what it means. This applies to all that you do: even walking. Let's digest it: Doing something has basic parts Goal (Ends, Want, Effect) Work(Means, Task, Cause) When you do something, you have a goal in mind: a reason why you are doing it. If you don't have a reason then you are stupid. Even just wasting your time is a reason for doing something. Let's take your reading this article as an example. Why are you reading this? It could be that you are interested with Sun Tzu and his book. Perhaps, you got interested with the article itself. Maybe you are looking for knowledge or wisdom and you ended up here by chance. Every reason is valid. Some or most may or may not like it. But, it is valid and you have a reason: which means you are not stup...
