I slept all Monday morning and I had a meeting with my financial advisor in the afternoon, he made me realise just how out of date my filing really is and that it needed to be sorted or how can I keep my finances in order if my paperwork is all over the place.
Ok maybe it's not that bad, it is all in a filing cabinet, there was just no order to some of it.
Unfortunately, the part out of order was the part I needed reviewing on!!!
Why is that always the way?
So yesterday I spent hours sorting out paperwork, putting Insurance polices, pension statements and ISA documents all in order, even sorting the old papers for things that are no longer valid and putting them to one side for a bonfire (or shredding).
I feel like a weight has been lifted from me, albeit a small weight, a weight none the less.
I feel that clearing out the rubbish could be more uplifting than I first thought it would be. I was looking for a house that was easier to keep clean, yet I feel that in the process it will give me a calmer life with less stress and worry, strange as that sounds I hadn’t expected it.
I have always wanted to work for myself, so now I have the chance to sort everything properly and turn my home into a business and use it as a trial for running my own business.
After all, if I can't keep organised in my own home what hope do I have of keeping a business organised in my own home?
Does that make sense???
I know what I mean, or at least I think I do, I'm a long way off being able to work again, but maybe just maybe if I can be organised with my home, I may be able to have stress free time in the day to be able to study again.
Now that would be nice, I loved studying and I do miss it.
I don't miss the exams just the learning side of things, so maybe just maybe I will be able to complete my degree in Accounting even if I don't manage to become fully qualified.
I do think I would like to complete my studies and get the work experience needed to get my full qualification, but that does involve working again and starting from scratch as my last employers never did fill out my work experience record stating what I had achieved.
It seems strange being this old and still needing to get work experience, I thought that was over with when I was 17, but here I am 20 years later still needing work experience, how sad is that?
So for all 17+ people out there get as much experience at as many different things as you can unless you truly know what you want to do for the rest of your life, and if you do then lucky you, go for it with all you have.
OK off to do that keepsake box now and maybe start on son's bedroom, wish me luck!!!!!
