Time Saving Resource Sharing: ‘Don’t reinvent the wheel, just realign it.‘ – Anthony J. D’Angelo
I would eventually love to see a world of open-source sharing within the entire profession of TR, but I understand that not everything can be open source, or free. What is open source sharing? The term open source refers to something people can modify and share because its design is publicly accessible. The term originated in the context of software development to designate a specific approach to creating computer programs. I feel this term can be applied to resources and I invite you to practice this philosophy with me.
For now, I am happy with time-saving sharing. Webster defines time-saving as: “intended or serving to expedite something”. The below resources are available to you to use in order to save you time. Please consider submitting your time-saving resources to share with your fellow TR professionals.
‘Our greatest currency is our time and we cannot save it. Spend it wisely and never waste another’s or your own.’ – Kyle Barger
I have made some attempts to categorize the resources into four categories: TR Intervention & Activity Resources, TR Tools, TR Socials & Resource Websites, and TR Promotion. Use the drop-down menu above to navigate between the pages. If you are looking for something specific please use the search feature. Alternatively, you can browse all of the resources on this website in the table below. A side note; when downloading .ZIP files directly from the table below, you may miss additional linked resources that are included in the full descriptions. I encourage you to check out the detailed pages using the links above.
