Welcome to a new audit busy season!

Always greet the start of every season with anticipation, buzz, and a fresh perspective.

Will this season be worse or be better than the last?

How many are we going to lose? 

How many more will we gain?

What surprises await at the end?

What troubles did we not imagine yet? 

Every time I’m caught in a seemingly endless loop of distress, I always remind myself this. 

There is a cycle to everything.

Nothing lasts forever. 

In the famous words of Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities:

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way—in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

To accountants and auditors facing a new busy season around this time—may your busy season be as different as the previous ones, in a good way.
