What is the Grid?

Is it some type of matrix?

One of my favorite movies is The Matrix. Even though it is kinda old at this point, there are many parallels to the Excel grid and lessons we can learn from our hero Neo.

    Very thought provoking video covering topics beyond Excel. The discussion regarding taking time to have time was great.

    Really enjoy your videos especially being lazy. That video pointed out my own biggest down falls creating reports that ended up just creating another project weekly/monthly for myself. Taking my 40 hour week to 50 then 60 I so related. My new mindset is to be lazy. Produce quality useful reports by mastering the excel tools that will help me achieve that in less time. Now revisiting the additional reports to make sure new management is utilizing them or are they now just another file overlooked taking up space. Thank you,
    Kerry
