If you are an accountant, or you are studying to become an accountant, you may enjoy these commandments of accounting we found on the web. Also, remember the unspoken commandment among accountants: always protect yourself with good accountant insurance!

  • Accounting is not really math or organization. It’s both, with the rules and complications of Law.
  • If you’re only going to be half-serious about your studies, don’t become an accountant.
  • Stay focused! One slip up and you’ll give yourself hours (if not days) of additional work.
  • If you love accounting, it will typically come easily to you.
  • If you don’t love accounting? It may be one of the hardest things you attempt.
  • The good news? You can teach yourself to love the subject if your adoration falls.
  • If your resources aren’t working for you, find new ones. Now.
  • Accounting is selfish – you can’t love it and also love something else.

Sound about right to all you accountants out there? And would you agree about our addition of the accountant insurance commandment? The insurance protection could end up saving you big money if you ever need to use it!
