CR England Independent Contractor succeeds with balance in life

Frank, from Brighton, MI, has one major piece of success that he wants to share with new drivers: “Find a balance between driving and family if you are looking for longevity.” He realizes that too much of one hurts the other. Too much home time, and your business is hurt while to much work and your home time is hurt. To stay successful for a long time takes dedication, but balance.



As an Independent Contractor for CR England, Inc., Frank is like most people. And that is that money motivates him. He is close to retirement and wants to make sure he gets to enjoy it. He works hard and stays focused on his job. Running from early evening to sunlight, he knows that focus is the key word.



He is successful because of his determination. He wants to succeed. While he enjoys what he does for a living, he also realizes that it is a catalyst for his retirement. He has recently married and looks forward to living in the Philippines for 6 months and then living in the United States for 6 months each year. To do this, he needs to have a plan, just like on the road. The trip plan is what will get him the success to make the money. The more organized, the better the money will be.



When asked what experiences have affected him on the road, his answer is touching. “When I see other truckers be courteous and help out others with problems. It is heart warming to see truckers help on the road.” This kindness makes Frank a good driver as well as a good human being.
