Still At It...

I am back studying AGAIN for an audit retake. I have come to realize that the material is not hard, however, I tend to rush through the material and never really take the time to learn it.  Without actually learning the material, they can throw the same concept at me a million times and I would get those questions wrong.  This time around, hopefully the last time I take Audit (raise your hand if you have read that statement before on this blog), I am talking to myself and explaining the reason why an answer is correct or wrong. I am just tired of studying and would like to be done with this exam early 2015.


I have been reading Eckhart Tolle's "The Power Of Now" and I must say it has been very insightful.  I find joy in studying and do not feel guilty when I choose to take a night off from studying.  He talks about living in the Now.  Not to focus and obsess on the past or the future.  I want to be a CPA and based on the book, constantly ask myself "What am I doing today to get to that goal."  If you haven't read this book, its a must. I am trying not let studying consume me like it has done in the past.  I will make the most of my one night a week that I choose not to study.


In other news, my fiancĂ© and I bought a house and will be closing in a week.  I cannot wait to move in to our new space.  Everyone's needs, including our dog, were factored into picking our new home.  Once we move in, I will post pictures of the new place.  I am really excited about finally having office space. 


Happy Studying!
