Welcome to Time Well Spent

The anti-hustle approach to sustainable excellence in entertainment and creative work

You Made It Here Because Something Isn't Working

Maybe it was the 3am venue email about a "minor" stage change. Or the weekend you spent fixing problems that proper systems would have prevented. Perhaps it's that sinking feeling when you realize you've lost the joy in work you once loved.

You're not alone. And you're definitely not broken.

After 25+ years managing some of Europe's most complex live production - from European band tours to 180+ -person Opera production - I've learned something the productivity gurus won't tell you:

The chaos isn't inevitable. The burnout isn't a badge of honor. There's a better way.

What Time Well Spent Actually Means

Time Well Spent isn't another productivity system. It's a philosophy of work that honors both your ambition and your humanity..

The "Less but better" Philosophy

Less but better isn't about doing less work—it's about doing work that actually matters while maintaining the energy and creativity that makes you excellent at what you do.

This means:

  • Strategic focus over reactive busyness

  • Sustainable systems over heroic firefighting

  • Quality relationships over transactional networking

  • Creative fulfillment over productivity optimization

  • Human rhythms over machine efficiency
