William Penn said, “Time is what we want most – but what we use worst.” After 30+ years of observing contractors, he may be right! There are hundreds of books and other resources dedicated to the subject of time management. Our only conclusion, based on what we see and hear from our members, is that time management DOES NOT WORK! If it did, how could there possibly be so many tired, frustrated contractors out there?
Please watch this week as Wayne introduces the concept of PROTECTING YOUR TIME along with 10 tips for doing exactly that.
We’d like to hear what time protection strategies work well for you. Please give us the benefit of your thinking in the comments. Thank you.

Thanks for your discussions on Protecting Your Time. #4 is one I wish more people would comply with. Attached is a video from Travelers regarding distracted driving. Everyone needs to put their phone down. Thanks for sharing your 10 points.

In total, Travelers has posted four YouTube videos on what a life could have looked like, and they are impactful. Considering Safety Week is coming up, I would suggest contractors and other viewers of your blog share this with their employees.

You’re welcome, Brian.
