EP285: Bruce Gerstenfeld - How Time Management & Big Dreams Create Successful Bookkeepers

“You can succeed in any economy if you have the right
business model and the drive to make it work.” 


-Bruce Gerstenfeld
 
Making changes to your life is scary. But facing your fears and
taking a chance has to be better than spending your life making
money for other people, never really having time for yourself or
your loved ones. It is never too late to make a positive
change!
 
Our failures are only failures if we don’t act on and grow from
the lessons they have to teach us. Take charge of your dreams by
finding your passion. That self-motivating driving force that
will propel you towards success.
 
Bruce Gerstenfeld is a CPA and partner in Gerstenfeld and
Company. On this week's episode, he talks about the importance of
finding the story behind the numbers, and helping clients get
command of their time, energy and intention to chase their
dreams.
