Book excerpt: Written by a CPA for CPA's, this book is intended to help those in the public accounting space find the work/life balance they are looking for, during the most challenging months of the year. As most people in corporate america know, we spend the vast majority of our waking hours at work, not with our loved ones traditionally. This book is an excellent resource for anyone working in excess of 60 hours a week, and looking to implement new strategies to spend more time doing what they would prefer to be doing. If you can take away just 1 helpful tip from this book, then it's original intentions and creation has been fulfilled. This is not going to take you from 60 hours a week to 30 rather, this will give you some insights that have helped me, as well as some individuals I have interviewed, find a way to create the ideal work week for yourself. I am not an expert, but I have been through this and feel that I was able to create that ideal balance where I was being efficient with my time at work and still out there having fun with my friends and family. Again, you don't have to be in public accounting to benefit from the this book, I am only recalling on the experiences that I have had. These tips are universal in their application. Enjoy !
