Blind Dates and Lasers!

Happy Groundhog day to you all. It appears Phil saw his shadow, what a surprise 6 more weeks of winter... But he made a special forecast for the Rexburg Idaho area. 6 more months of winter!

Finance
Today we started off with Finance and the wit and sarcasm that is Brother Andrews was in full bloom. He discussed with us the Income Statement, Balance Sheet and was going to get to Statement of Cash flows but didn't. there are videos available that he made that he says WILL surely bore us to death. I'm not sure I want to die so soon. Nothing spectacular happened except for the Blind Date Brother Andrews set Erin Olpin up on. She was told that she was going on a date with a guy to a fancy restaurant in a sweet souped up, decked out, pimped to da max, hummer and the guy says over dinner he's worth $2 million. Being the smart girl she is, she asks how much he owes... $1995000. It was a great object lesson to the balance sheet.

OB
Brother Holt talked to us about our personal goals and how he wants them to be stretching and he mentioned yet again, not to talk to anyone about them. He gave some examples of what he doesn't want... "Go to the temple 2 times.", "Write in my journal", "Get Healthy" etc. It really has to fit the SMART format.
We have been given 2 new assignments to go along with the powerpoint presentation we were talking over on Friday and finished today.
1)Plan 10-15 minutes days formally planning my day from now on
2)spend 5-7 hours doing my productivity pyramid.
It was another great class. For more quotes, revert to my Friday's post where the link to the powerpoint is at.
