Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career.

[Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Download or read book Money Management Strategies written by Michael Hall and published by Michael Hall. This book was released on 2020-11-22 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Become a money management superstar and learn how to manage money wisely, design a budget, handle expenses, settle debts successfully, manage debts and make smart investments. As most of us know, one of the most difficult things is to control money. Money is one of the most important things that can be used to serve our goals, but it also is one of the things we tend to overspend, misuse and lose money on. In our short-sightedness, we often mistake significant pursuit for the important things that we should be focusing on. Such as the pursuit of money instead of the things that really drive us. Money is not a short-term goal, and it is not interchangeable with success. If what you want is a lot of money, you might have success and happiness for a while. But there is no guarantee that you will be either successful or happy forever. I know, I know, it is difficult not to admire the big paychecks, large investments, the luxury, the parties or the lifestyle that money provides. People, who are driven by consuming money, tend to be unhappy. When the money is not enough, they need more. When they have enough money, they need more again. You know what I'm talking about. People who are driven to use their money for success and financial freedom are an exception. That is because when you make your own success, you are ultimately in a position of strength and freedom that cannot be taken away from you. So ask yourself how you want to use your money? If you want your money to serve you, then find a way to make enough money to meet your needs and fund your dreams. You will never have enough money if you want to use it to fulfill all of your desires. But if your goal is to have money to use to do what you want in life and get the things you want, you probably will never get to your financial goals. If your goal is to have the money to fund your freedom to do what you want in life, then you will soon be able to do what you want without worrying about money. How do you make enough money to have the freedom you want in your life and to have the money to do what you want in life? First, you need an end goal in life. Your goal does not have to be the best or the richest or the biggest. It just has to have enough certainty that you can focus on it and be able to tell the future how much money it takes to reach your goal. You want to work towards your goals and have the money to build the value you want. Is it worth it to pay what it takes to get what you want? If you have a goal, you do not have to answer that question. Developing a goal and working towards it, you will see your goals increase in value and your motivation will increase as you move towards your goal. What are you waiting for? Design your life and make your dreams a reality.
