Summary

In today’s show, we discuss the topic of my vehicle university. There are many differences in the home services industry between plumbing, electrical and HVAC. However, one thing that they all have in common is road time. If you are in home services, you see the backside of a windshield for upwards of 20-30% of your day. The time is significant; and so is how you spend it. Brian and Nate breakdown the concept of my vehicle university (MVU) in making the most of that drive time. Whether it’s listening to communication training, podcasts, or other educational materials drive time is paid time; and paid time is growth time. A long-distance runner runs the full distance every race. There is no “run time” and “rest time.” There is only race time and that is the idea that really resonates with wasting no day.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Waste No Day podcast, a podcast specifically for and about the home services industry as it relates to plumbing, heating,
0:22.7	air conditioning, and electrical. More than a podcast, Waste No Day is a credo, a determination,
0:29.4	a mindset. It is a never-ending discipline. It is a refuse to lose pursuit. It is a wake-up call
0:36.0	every morning to waste no day. Now here's your host,
0:40.5	Brian Burton and Nate Minnick.
0:50.5	Hey, welcome to another episode of the Waste No Day podcast. I'm your host, Nate.

0:56.1	And it is a new day, a new week, and a new topic for you, getting a degree in MV.
1:03.1	That is My Vehicle University.
1:05.6	And for that, we have a quote, Brian.
1:07.1	If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you.
1:10.7	If you're determined to learn, no one can help you. If you're determined to learn,
1:12.8	no one can stop you. Zig Zigler. Any of you who have children out there know that that quote
1:18.4	rings true right away. And that is something that I've certainly learned as a father that
1:23.6	teaching my children one thing is good if they are willing to learn, trying to teach them,
1:29.9	if they're not willing to learn is a whole other thing. And that same logic can be applied to
1:35.4	you and to myself as we choose to use our time wisely, specifically the drive time. And that's why
1:43.3	we want to focus on the MV My Vehicle University.
1:46.8	We know that all of you who are listening are service technicians and have significant drive times during your day.
1:53.5	And we want to encourage you to use that time wisely.
1:58.5	Absolutely. I look at the chasm of difference between my oldest daughter
