Helpful Heuristics Handbook

Beschreibung

As set out in the foreword's in other publications in our 'Dream Enabler' series, for as long as we can remember, the obsessive study of great thinkers has been our favourite pastime. One aspect of this has been our evolving approach to 'common placing' - that is, the constant collection and ordering of the ideas of others. Common placing has evolved, for us, from simply hoarding as many of our favourite books as possible, to cataloguing separately the key extracts, re-cataloguing extracts into disciplines and themes and then to summarising the extracts into a centralised, personal 'bible' loosely titled 'brain food'. This release, the 'Helpful Heuristics Handbook' sets out some of the content that indirectly inspired us to create other books in The Dream Enabler series. More broadly the heuristics featured here have also had an evolving and increasingly important place in our day to day thinking and decision making. As heuristics are designed to be 'rules of thumb' or short cuts to making reliably useful decisions quickly - without any focus on the underlying science; this handbook adopts the same approach. In relation to any heuristics in this handbook that are not self-explanatory - or indeed that you would like more information or context about - please contact us. The other alternative of course is to investigate yourself via that ubiquitous heuristic tool (not actually otherwise mentioned in this book); namely leveraging Dr Google. Or as we were gently reminded recently: 'LMGTFY' is a thing; acknowledging the irony that you may need to Google this...

Matthew Burgess is one of the founders of specialist firm View Legal. Having the opportunity to help clients achieve their goals is what he is most passionate about. As Matthew always works in conjunction with trusted advisers (whether it be accountants, financial advisers or other lawyers) and their clients, finding ways to fundamentally improve the value received by those advisers, and in turn their clients, has led him to develop numerous game changing models. Examples include providing guaranteed upfront fixed pricing, founding what is widely regarded as Australia's first virtual law firm, and more recently, developing a platform that gives advisers access to market leading advice and support for less than $10 a week. Matthew's specialisation in tax, structuring, asset protection, estate and succession planning has seen him recognised by most leading industry associations including the Tax Institute, the Weekly Tax Bulletin and in the 2014 'Best Lawyers' list for trusts and estates and either personally, or as part of View, since 2015 in 'Doyles' for taxation and since 2017 for wills, estates and succession planning. Work is one aspect of his life Matthew loves, so there is no need to be constantly searching for 'balance'. His other great loves are: 1. Family - they are profiled in various ways through the series of children's books he has written under the pseudonym 'Lily Burgess' - see www.wordsfromdaddysmouth. com.au and various TV commercials; 2. Learning - going cold-turkey on television and most forms of media in late 2005 has radically increased Matthew's ability to study the great authors and inspired him to publish a series of books that explore the concept of 'true success' - see www.thedreamenabler. com.au 3. Health - aside from being a foodie and swimming at least 5kms a week, Matthew installed a stand up workstation in 2007 and among a few other lifestyle choices, it changed his life.
