Struggling with to do lists? This will change your life!

Julia Bickerstaff - Friday, October 30, 2009
I don't think I am overstating it when I say that this book has caused a revolution in my life. Gone are the reams of to-do lists and instead I am mega organised with easy-to-do 'next steps', project lists and so much more. For the first time in what seems like eternity my brain feels a lot freer. Wow! This book is not a light hearted look at getting organised but a serious masterpiece by the productivity guru David Allen. It's not a tough read but if you want to get results you must commit to following the guru's advice.

To be honest I had this book on my "must read" list for about a year before I got to it, I wish I hadn't waited so long. It's a gem.

Easy peasy accounting

Julia Bickerstaff - Wednesday, October 28, 2009
I've just finished my BAS, I'm a qualified accountant so I shouldn't grumble but to be honest I used to find MYOB torture (and Quiken and all the others). About 6 months ago I started using SAASU and I love it. If you are not very accounting/numbers minded this is for you. It's intuitive, it speaks in real english and it assumes you know absolutely nothing about the curious world of book keeping. I suggest you have a go with this. Even if you then decide to hire a book keeper (a decision I recommend when you can afford it) you will have a much better understanding of what they are doing for you and you can steer them in the right direction when it comes to 'expense categories' and other useful stuff.

You can give SAASU a go for free by clicking here and do let me know how you get on.
