Keeping Your Computer Running Smoothly

By Jason Larrsohn


You may not be an accountant or be using excel for your business, but there are many reasons why you should become proficient at excel. While there are some steps you can take to build your proficiency with excel, you need to know why in order to really motivate yourself. Here are several reasons why you need to learn excel.

When you are living in the rat race and trying to save time, it is much better to create a sustainable system in order to keep track of things. When it comes to short -term analysis or even long-term, you will find that excel can fit the mold. You will be able to organize a lot of data in just one excel document. You can connect and work with several sheets in order to keep track of the changes but you can also compare those numbers quite simply.

Everything that is important and necessary to you today will probably be just as useful tomorrow - so when your computer crashes what will you do? If you have everything backed up on disks you won't have to worry about losing any of your work.

This can be the difference in a substantial pay raise and no pay raise at all. While you will mostly be working with numbers, you will be able to make pie charts and graphs that are much easier to analyze.

And perhaps the most important thing you can do to maintain your computer is to avoid viruses. Don't accept downloads that you didn't ask for, and be careful of opening suspicious emails. Use filters and scanners to ensure that the chances of you getting a virus remain low, and be careful of your computer use.

Viruses on the Internet come from pop-ups and other unfriendly websites. If you avoid any websites that do not look authentic or that do not have a lot of information on search engines like Google or Wikipedia, you can prevent your computer from catching any destructive viruses. These sites are normally flash game sites or even blogs.

A spreadsheet can help you manage the holiday rat race by helping you list and price things in a manageable way. Keeping track of birthdays, anniversaries, and other important dates can be tough but using excel as your one-stop tool can help you manage your personal life much better.

Don't hold yourself back from really organizing your life. Now is the best time to get on top of things and when you use excel, you will find that it is much easier than you thought before. There may be a bit of a learning curve, but as you get into it and have the right training, you will find that excel is much more simple than people make it out to be.
