An Accountant 
How I did it: I was forced to use the program. Don't get me wrong, it was the program of my choice and a good one, but the task was large and overwhelming. Not just learning the new program, but also untangling a years worth of accounting for 30 rental properties, while healing from a pretty intense surgery.

Now that I’m done with my QuickBooks project, I can spend more time on Excel. This might take a bit longer to achieve because I just don’t see I have a need for the program, but…. I shall learn this. I know it will serve a good purpose. All knowledge can be used for good. :)
