If I can add my own beginner’s 2ç:

One breakthrough came for me when I realised  that the statement of
financial position is basically a catalogue of what would happen if you
were to die* right now.

All that’s owed to you (debits) gets given to others (credits).

Your net position is always zero: as they say, you can’t take any of it
with you.



*Or if your company were liquidated.
