7 Habits of People Who Keep It Together During
Uncertain Times
by Tim Denning
I am in awe of a former co-worker. Despite a pandemic and recession, he's acting like the calm and peaceful internet monk, Jay Shetty. When I asked him, "
How's business going for you old mate?" - he responded, "
Couldn't be better. There's so much opportunity right now."
Hold up a second. How on earth can anyone be so calm and be talking about opportunity? Everybody
else I've asked jumps straight into their own tragic story about how millions of people are going to die and we're all screwed.
I've known this guy for a while. The habits he practices are highly unconventional and during these uncertain times, it's actually his secret sauce to keeping it all together.
Maybe you can adopt, reshape, or be inspired by some of his habits.

On April 9, 2020, the IRS issued Notice 2020-23, extending a variety of deadlines, including Section 1031 deadlines. This Notice would extend any 45-day or 180-day deadline that occurs between April 1 and July 15 to July 15, 2020.
Because the extension, as currently granted, only applies to deadlines falling between April 1 and July 15, the extension DOES NOT currently apply to both the 45-day and 180-day deadlines. Thus, a taxpayer with a 45th day deadline of May 16 would receive an extension of the identification deadline to July 15, but the same taxpayer would not receive an extension to the 180-day deadline, since if falls after July 15.
The extension also applies to the 180-day deadline to invest in an Opportunity Zone Fund.
Please note that although this Notice applies for federal taxation purposes, some individual states may not follow the federal deadline extensions, affecting state taxation. Taxpayers should consult with their tax advisor for more information. We will keep you updated if further clarifications are issued by the IRS.
Please contact Carol Hayden, executive vice president - Investors Title Exchange Corporation, if you have any questions about this deadline extension. Click HERE to view a copy of the Notice.
