5 Thought Friday
Decided to finish all my required Continuing Professional Education requirements over the weekend to maintain my CPA license (see #1 below). A big cheer to all Accountants (smile)!
1. What I am currently reading, viewing, or listening to:
Maximize Your Productivity
A weekend course on productivity to refresh the critical behaviors that improve efficiency and productivity at work and in my personal life. Some of my go-to tips:
Take a speed reading course
Be organized for meetings (and not just “meet to meet”)
Use the 80/20 Rule (Pareto Principle) when deciding what is important
Keep off your mobile phone (still a Work-in-Progress)
2. Gratitude Practice (for improved happiness):
Grateful to be wellness-focused enough to get to the dermatologist this past week for a regular checkup….and no major issues! After being so light-skinned and sunburned over and over again as a youth, the annual trip to the dermatologist is a MUST!
3. Wellness ideas to consider:
Careful drinking “healthy” fruit drinks or smoothies. Why? SUGAR
4. What I’m eating, drinking, buying, or whatever else is on my mind:
Holland hydroponic organic cherry tomatoes; Simply delicious grilled or in a Japanese organic egg omelet. Luckily I don’t look at prices when it comes to longevity and wellness (within reason as I am an Accountant).
5. Quote(s) I am Pondering:
“You know in the deepest part of your heart if you don’t tell the truth the world falls apart. You don’t wake up in the morning berating yourself for telling the truth…..and your conscience holds you accountable for this truth.” Jordan Peterson; Professor, Philosopher, Clinical Psychologist
This is simply too deep to place any meaning around it in such a short blog. So more to follow on Jordan Peterson in the next 5 Thoughts.
Happy Friday!
Mike
