Dear Cyber Companions,
Time is spinning super fast this week. The early week until the middle of the week was the time I spent evaluating several accounting packages. I wanted something simple, free, and web-based. I cannot have it all in one package. So I ended up using Manager.io for my company and GnuCash for my personal accounting. Both are not web-based but feature-wise, they meet my needs. There are teething issues with both but I can live with those shortcomings.
I am also having a breakthrough with my YouTube Shorts. The Shorts is a new market segment YouTube focusing on right now. It is to address the Swipe Generation whose attention span is within seconds. It is still an uncharted territory for YouTube and I am a Trailblazer in this new playing field.
The whole week is about keeping the boat afloat. There's a lot of running around. I am a multitasker when it comes to doing errands. Unfortunately, my super efficient assistant is not meant for menial work. Therefore without much choice, I have to pick up the ball.
Luckily, my workload tapered off towards the weekend. That allows me to realign back to my Vision Quest although I can only catch up with my training on Saturday and Sunday. "Let's focus on the small wins", I said to myself. It's not that I purposely slacked. It is a question of Opportunity Cost; do I work until the wee hours or wake up before dawn to exercise? Choices, choices...
Overall, I cleared the work backlog. The path had a few detours, but the destination is clear, and my Vision Quest fire burns brighter than ever.
The Beaten Path
In a week that spun like a dizzying waltz,
I sought accounting tools and a financial vault.
Simple, free, and web-based, a trio of dreams,
Unicorns danced in elusive schemes.
Manager.io and GnuCash took the lead,
Not web-based, but their features are true indeed.
Teething issues surfaced, quirks to bear,
Yet I embraced them with a seasoned flair.
In the digital realm, a breakthrough to find,
YouTube Shorts, in attention's bind.
Swipe Generation's gaze in seconds caught,
A trailblazer in this pixelated thought
.
A dance of multitasking, a swirl of tasks,
The assistant steps back, no menial masks.
Running around like a well-choreographed play,
On the beaten path, a gray hair's array.
Weekend's breath brought a calming breeze,
Realignment with Vision Quest, a journey with ease.
Saturday and Sunday, a training ground,
In the small wins, a determination is found.
Opportunity Cost, a constant choice,
To toil at night or greet dawn's voice.
Cleared the backlog, detours in view,
The beaten path leads, the vision anew.
Avoir!
