I’ve spent years exploring the intricacies of time management. I’ve tried and tested countless techniques and strategies to help people make the most of their days. And what I’ve discovered is that we need to shift our mindset from “managing” time to “mastering” it. The secret lies in improving our relationship with time itself.

Constructive receipt is a tax timing rule requiring you to withhold taxes when employees’ pay is set aside for them to access without restriction, regardless of when they are actually paid. And if you don’t withhold once employees are in constructive receipt of their pay, the IRS will come after you, not them. There are two big questions on how this interacts with on-demand pay, and the answers are murky.

As a kid, my dad occasionally took me fishing in his small, rusty tin boat. Sometimes, in the middle of the lake, he’d put duct tape over a leak to keep the water at bay until we got back to shore. He used to say that boats don’t sink from the water around them. They sink from the water that gets in them. I’ve drawn on that saying many times, particularly during the stormy seasons of life, when I’ve felt like I might be pulled under by the fear and negativity swirling around me.

Studs Terkel is a particular hero of mine. I like his name, his style, his association with jazz but also the way he wrote. His characteristic approach was marked by interviews with ordinary Americans about their jobs and how they felt about them. He did lots of other stuff but that was his work. What is especially striking is that he saw himself as a chronicler of other people’s lives rather than a commentator on them.
