Perspective

It’s easy in your day-to-day life to forget the bigger picture. People tend to look at their own world in much detail, prioritizing the things that must get done and quickly go to the next thing. It’s sometimes good to step away from what you’re doing and put things into perspective.

A great article about perspective and perception can be found HERE. The easier version can be found HERE.

You don’t have to get philosophical, but just thinking about something not work-related can help you in adjusting your mind, or at least give you something to talk about in social occasions, such as meeting colleagues at the coffee machine.

For example, did you know that they were colonizing the Wild West the same time as they were building skyscrapers in Manhattan. I always think of them taking place eighty to a hundred years apart. It’s wild!

And take numbers: the difference between a million and a billion is huge. It’s ‘only’ three zeros at the end, but someone expressed it once in terms of time. A million seconds is 11 days and a billion seconds is almost 31 years! I knew a billion was a lot more, but this puts it in perspective.

Back to work again, there’s yet so much to do before you may call it a day. Dosing off is fine, but now you can focus again on the real fun stuff: VAT! We will help you getting through the day. Every day. Just visit our website and we’ll make you happy with all the VAT news from around the world.
