That elusive finish line

I often find, especially when working on large projects, that as the finish line approaches I run out of steam. One of the things I often do to overcome this is add more depth to the project, more layers of complexity, or more usability or applyability to the finished product. By doing this I generally shoot right past the finish line for the required bit of the project without even realizing it.

Pivot table wonkiness

I had a major problem with one of my pivot tables today and was not able to find a solution online. The issue was that not all of the data was showing up on my table. Every time I would refresh I would get different data, but not all of it. I am not sure what caused this but I found a solution. Pull the fields out of row labels, hit refresh, then drop them back in. I don't know why this worked, but it did.
