Although now might seem like the perfect time for DIY home improvement, be sure to consider our new reality.
Did you find yourself cooped up during the pandemic-induced stay-at-home orders, blankly staring at the walls of your house, longing for more?
Maybe you wanted to travel or go out to dinner with friends. Or maybe you just wanted a fresh coat of paint on that wall.
If you found yourself in the latter camp, you had company: When the home improvement platform Houzz surveyed 1,000 homeowners who use the site in April, nearly 80% said they’re considering remodeling changes that would help them enjoy their houses more. And sales at Home Depot were up 7% in the first quarter of this year compared with the same period last year.
This may worth something:

The art of managing cost without a budget - FM
T he energy company Equinor (formerly Statoil) is Scandinavia's largest company, with operations in more than 30 countries and a yearly turnover of $64.4 billion. In 2005, we made radical changes to our management processes, with two purposes: to make them more aligned with our people-focused and values-based beliefs and to make them more adaptive and robust against a dynamic and unpredictable business environment.
Both these purposes required major changes in both the traditional budget process and the mindset behind it. We actually ended up kicking out the traditional budget in favour of a new set of much more effective processes, including one for cost management. We found inspiration in the management model "Beyond Budgeting", which is described more in depth later.
