Education > !! Start Here !!


For those who understand the power of a  single page,
we offer many wonderful resources.

Single page images and documents make for great primers before learning details and as a reference after,
but seldom are they a way of learning about anything in depth. 
For that, a cycle of reading and practice is the only path. 


For those with a maximum processing capacity of a single page or less,
our methods of sharing and teaching may not be for you.
We've cut and cut and cut, and we'll give pointers to our one page prose and images below,
but honestly, they alone will not help you glow. 

Without reading, how might you ever enjoy the rhythm and rhyme required to rocket beyond time? 
From our perspective, the wonderful game has lost a lot of creed due to an unwillingness to read,
but thank goodness it has not infected everyone!!


The problems with videos for learning new-to-you Topics or Technology are numerous,
especially when related topics and tech that came prior was grossly mis-taught for many years, as is the case here.  


Those who are further along have developed false beliefs and cognitive bias due to errant education and software,
and unfortunately most don't know what the don't know.


For those younger who are confident their education was better and without bias due to YouTube alone,
there is this to ponder...
​
What is the time difference between watching a 1000 word video which may or may not contain what you need versus allowing ones own eyes and mind to process a single image in a flash.
​
The inability to
incrementally update videos as our education and software offerings mature is also absolutely awful, 
and they provide nothing a watcher can hang on to as they fade into the glitter of their pixilated screens.

The power of images combined with the sound of the voice which reads and speaks to you softly however,
the same one that leads you to the drumming and thumping of trains and bells of good fortune,
they know no bounds.  


Thankfully, all things can heal with distance coaching and time.  
Bookkeeping is Scorekeeping for the Game of Commerce, 
and We're all Commercial Players in our own Commercial Way. 
​

Welcome to our "GEM"

Picture

To the right you will find an annotated version of our "Gemstone Educational Model" (GEM).

​We teach from the top down.

With each progressive set of material you gain a holistic perspective at a deeper level. 

Most others start at the bottom and try to work up.

One problem with that is the volume of people who never make it above ground.  Another is related to those fortunate enough to start their ascension. Unfortunately if and when they lose their grasp, the game plays like Chutes and Ladders and all the way to the ground they fall again.

We ask experts to water down their complex topics into a handful of fun filled and jamb packed slides. Those become the tiny capstone experience. From there, a shift into Dr. Seuss and Mr. Rogers style teachings is often quite fun. Then comes a shift into more traditional education but with more colors and rhyme than are found at this time. As the upper Capsule starts to solidify, sound confidence is built along with basic literacy that can be used for more fractal studies as they slide down the shaft of funli-ness. 

Many you've never met stay busy building, scribbling away, and posing quietly while waiting for those to realize a single page of prose is all that's required to embrace an Inner Rose.​

Our  "Welcome Slides" can be found at "Education > Single Page Visuals". They provide you with the best semi-visual orientation we can offer for your intro to the capstone.  We crammed it full of stuff just for you, but again, remember, it will only take you so far. 

Our "Fun Seekers Corner" curriculum is found at "Education > Fun Seekers Corner" . It offers curriculum in the Style of Mr. Rogers. It's a great place to start for everyone, although many may not think so from their own current points of view. 

Our "Accounting Studio Magic" Curriculum is found at "Education > Accounting Studio Magic" menu. It offers curriculum in the style of current High School or College learning, but with a little more pizazz.   

Summary to Get YOU Going:
  1. Welcome Slides  - Start there. Pick a few to view. See how they do. (found at Education > Single Page Visuals)
  2. Education > Fun Seekers Corner - Go there 2nd. See if you can enjoy the rhymes while learning in tiny time. 
  3. Education > Accounting Studio Magic - Go there 3rd, if you want to gain the Power of Scratch.

Go now and Futz until your Heart's Content. 

With our documents anyone can make fast progress towards becoming their very own Professional Bookkeeper,
but you can't become One without Doing It.
