Many accountants and CPAs (and business owners!) struggle to manage their time and use it to get done what they want.Β 

When they lose a grip on time, the tendency is to work more hours than they want to.Β 

Here today to talk with me about this is Dawn Goldberg, the author of β€œThe Smarter Accountant.”

Dawn shares how accountants and CPAs can get better and more effective with their time.Β 

It includes 5 simple steps:

1. Plan your time.Β 

2. Avoid running off of to-do lists.Β 

3. Manage your mind before, during, and after.Β 

4. Follow through on your plan.Β 

5. Assess so that you can learn from your experiment.Β 

Β 

Highlights:

β€” β€œWorking off of a to-do list is the most ineffective way to manage your time because the human brain gets very overwhelmed with a list of things to do, because it cannot put things into context.” 

β€” β€œPlanning saves so much time. When you make decisions ahead of time you reduce decision fatigue throughout the week.” 

β€” β€œYou absolutely have to first learn how to manage your mind before you can manage your time.”

β€” β€œOur brain thinks everything is urgent and so important. So we have to decide on purpose what is important.” 

β€” β€œYou will be amazed at how much more you can get done if you put a boundary around your time.”
