Moonlighting 🌙
If it feels like everyone you know is doing this, you’re probably right 😅
The word moonlighting comes from working by the light of the moon. Meaning working after you’re done working.
There’s been a 25-30% increase in moonlighting in India and 67% of the population in Singapore and Hong Kong already do this.
But is moonlighting for you? 🤔
Great question!
Let’s explore some pros and cons.
Moonlighting means extra cash in your pocket, ready to tackle debts, save up for dreams, and handle surprises, giving you more financial freedom.
Trying new gigs or side businesses through moonlighting lets you learn and grow in exciting ways, building up skills that make you stand out in any job.
Moonlighting lets you chase what you love, whether it's turning hobbies into gigs or getting creative, adding happiness and self-expression to your routine.
Moonlighting means going the extra mile, juggling two jobs, which might stretch your hours, eat into personal time, and even wear you down over time.
Holding a side gig could impact how well you handle your main job, affecting your focus, energy, and even your relationship with colleagues or bosses, slowing down your career growth.
Depending on your moonlighting, conflicts can arise with your main job, sparking questions about loyalty and company policies that restrict outside work, requiring you to tread carefully.
With moonlighting on the rise, do you think it’s more beneficial or more harmful?
