No one likes doing their accounting (except accountants); there are too many variants, too many spreadsheets, too much jargon, too many numbers. It’s just all too much for most of us. Also, if you have ever tried to do your own accounts (and I have!) you’ll know that there are a lot of technicalities that it is just impossible for you to know about unless you have accountancy training. Knowledge of these technicalities can save you a LOT of money, so for most of us, whether it is out of convenience or out of need, we have to use an accountant.

I recently read an article on the Pareto Principle, which states that 80% of your results come from 20% of your work. It was interesting to read the background on the principle and see it used in areas other than business, like clothing (we wear 20% of our clothes 80% of the time), cooking (we cook 20% of our recipes 80% of the time), etc. But it got me to thinking about how you can identify the top 20% of your customers in QuickBooks, the top 20% of your items/services, sales reps, your expenses, etc. While it won’t always be an 80/20 (could be 75/25), you still get the idea.

There are several factors that affect the rate of your car insurance premiums. Some of these factors are in your control, and others are not…

Your car – One of the best ways to get cheaper car insurance is by changing the make and model of the car that you currently drive. It might seem a drastic step, but your current car could be costing you thousands of extra dollars each year unnecessarily. For instance, people who drive an unfashionable car will pay less insurance than those who have fashionable cars because they are less likely to be stolen. Another example would be cars with inbuilt safety features; they also cost less to insure.

Thinking about happiness at work is a very difficult task. Honestly, it is absolutely impossible because work and happiness, from my point of view, are two different notions or things. I think that a full-time job does not give you any opportunity to find any ways to happiness. Moreover, one of my friends argues that in order to be happy people should not work. He considers that jobless people have a chance to think about life meaning and find out the real purpose of their lives.

What we are seeing in the news and reading on the internet is that the food we are eating is not good for us. Everything we are eating seems to have something in it that can make us sick; hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, food colouring, MSG, chemicals, artificial sweeteners… and the list goes on.

Iceland Volcano Conjures Up Recollections

Iceland has caused us to ponder. “Wow. A volcano can happen anywhere!” Of course, heated molten rock has nothing to do with the local weather. Volcanoes happen where they happen. They are the 800 pound gorillas of the earth’s surface. Hawaii exists because of volcanoes. Iceland would not be there were it not for what we are watching on TV. But since we are the creatures that we are, we settle on the land and notice its properties, and start to plant and live and make babies and establish villages. A local Icelandic farmer who farms nearby asks why he is being punished. “My great grandfather started this farm”. The “gods” might say: “Seems to me you guys got a great reprieve.”

Telling a story is a very definitive art of making people interested and convinced about your point of view. We see a very good example of this capability of storytelling in Biblical accounts as well as other religious scriptures. Generally, stories are very appealing to the younger audience. This is the reason that many children books such as ‘Jesus for children’ and ‘Jesus in me’ are a part of church resources. These books are narrative compilations of Biblical accounts written in the form of children’s stories.

Sometimes choosing among airport transportation services can be tough but the decision you make can either make or break your whole trip.

You may have heard of hearsays or stories from friends or friends of friends regarding how their trip to the Bahamas ended up being so terrible, or your sister-in-law’s trip to Shanghai that almost made her want to take the first flight back. Sometimes it’s not because of the places we visit that make us want to trash our travel plans but rather, it’s the choice of transportation. Sure you may say that these are just small bits of a bigger picture but they do greatly influence the train of events and, most definitely, your mood. Your choice of airport transportation services is no different: you arrive at your destination airport and ready to go to your hotel but you’re divided between whether or not you should take a cab or take the bus going there; either way they can both be taxing experiences.
