MANAGING YOUR TIME:
Day-Timers Inc. conducted a survey and learned:
-
Extremely
or very successful people tend to work
longer hours and plan their days during
their daily commute.
-
The average
American worker spends 22 minutes commuting
to work and 5% use their cellular phones
during the trip

37% have
written financial goals, and 33% have
written career goals, and 73% always or
frequently know what they want to
accomplish.
-
59% of
Americans begin their work day by reviewing
a daily action plan
-
One-third
of American workers (32%) never plan their
daily work. While 45% make a daily plan at
least once a week, only 9% accomplish
everything they set out to do. The higher
the income, the more likely the worker is to
make a written schedule and prioritize
tasks.
-
More than
half of workers (52%) use calendars to keep
track of their schedules, while 29% use
organizers. Women are more likely than men
to use these tools.
-
Men work an
average of 50 hours per week while women
work 42 hours a week.
-
62% of
American workers feel they are always or
frequently rushed to do the things they have
to do. Only 5% rarely or never feel rushed.
-
40% of
American workers say they would put in an
additional ten hours a week for extra pay.
-
71% say
they would watch less television in order to
work more.
-
Women are
more likely than men to socialize the first
half-hour at work (30% vs. 22%).
-
65% of
American workers spend some time but less
than a quarter of their day in meetings, and
11% spend between two and seven hours a day
in meetings. Only 36% believe none of the
time spent in meetings is wasted.
-
The typical
American worker in a relationship spends 10
hours a week alone with their significant
other.
-
52% of
American workers mentioned their job as the
reason they are unable to spend more time
with their significant other.
-
65% listed
spending more time with their family as a
priority or goal in their lives.
-
The
majority of the workforce (78%) list getting
more exercise as a goal, while two-thirds
(65%) would like to spend more time with
family and 59% would like to eat better.
Next we will give you some

- List member Josh Dill wrote an excellent paper
on "The Hidden Costs of Credit Card Processing"
http://etailersdigest.com/resources/Specials/HiddenCosts-CCA.htm.
A couple of list members have used his company for
credit card processing. I have recommended him
to a couple of clients, and he has saved them a lot
of money and they got their money in much faster.
