Let’s dive into working for results versus process. In a results-oriented world, we become high on outcomes. Think of sales; the ringing of the cash register becomes the anthem of success.

I recently had the opportunity to attend Expensify's ExpensiCon in Puglia, Italy, as a speaker and participant. The event brought together accounting professionals, technology partners, and consultants for an all-expense-paid experience provided by Expensify.

Juggling the myriad demands of professional and personal life often feels like an intricate dance—a constant push-and-pull, a ceaseless game of catch. The multiple balls we juggle in the air simultaneously can sometimes overwhelm us, and inevitably, one or two might drop

When we think of accounting, we often imagine rows of numbers, spreadsheets, and data analysis. Indeed, the power of data analytics has revolutionized the industry, offering profound insights and precision. But, as AI and machine learning evolve, crunching numbers is no longer a unique selling point for accounting firms. So, what sets your practice apart from everyone else?

Fostering passionate and loyal client relationships can be a tricky task. Just like any other relationship, they require a steady dose of care, attention, and nurturing. The key to success isn't solely based on your expertise but also on your ability to genuinely connect with clients personally.

In our modern, rapidly evolving work environment, it's easy to prioritize technical skills and overlook the importance of soft skills.

Do you ever feel like your attention is being pulled in a million different directions? It's all too easy to lose focus amidst the barrage of emails, social media notifications, and endless to-do lists. 

Navigating time management can be challenging, especially when it involves interactions with colleagues or supervisors. A common question I hear during my presentations on time management is: How do you handle situations where you've dedicated time blocks for focused work, but your boss or coworker interrupts with questions or requests?

Have you ever found yourself caught in a cycle of negative patterns, unable to break free from the outcomes you're unhappy with? It's easy to fall into the trap of blaming external circumstances for our situation, but the real key to unlocking positive change lies within ourselves.

We all know how incredibly easy it is for our attention to be pulled in a million different directions. As we juggle work, personal relationships, and endless notifications, we often fall victim to a phenomenon we call "Internal Busyness Syndrome." It’s when we become so consumed by our thoughts and distractions we miss out on valuable interactions and experiences.

In modern society, we often have to juggle work and personal life, leading to stress and burnout. But imagine if we could break the mold and revolutionize our approach to work-life balance and instead focus on work-life harmony.

Do you ever feel like you're constantly trying to keep up with the pressures of the outside world? Does it seem like you can't catch a break or get a moment of peace?

Have you ever felt torn between growing your practice and staying true to your values? It's a common struggle for many in the accounting world—you want to expand your business and help more clients but don't want to compromise your purpose and values (as you shouldn’t.)

Have you ever struggled to price your accounting services? Balancing your business goals with your niche can make finding the right pricing strategy challenging.

If you're running a business, casting a wide net and trying to appeal to as many potential clients as possible can be tempting.

Have you ever reached the end of the day only to realize you haven't accomplished half of what you had hoped? Maybe you got lost down an internet rabbit hole, spent too much time scrolling through social media, or had to attend yet another meeting that could have been an email. 

Do you ever feel like your business is running your life instead of the other way around? As a CPA, it's easy to get caught up in the day-to-day demands of running a practice and lose sight of what's really important.

Have you ever felt like you were working hard but still not getting anything done? You may be trying to juggle too many things at once.

As a business owner, I know firsthand the importance of building strong client relationships. That means I've also experienced the challenges of creating a client experience that resonates with them.

We all know work can be stressful. Deadlines, meetings, and the daily grind can take a toll on our mental and physical health.
