Why Should I Pay More for Web Hosting?⁣ ⁣ It’s a good question — and one we get a lot here at Goodman Creatives. ⁣ ⁣ The short answer is that cheap web hosting can slow down your website, leave you vulnerable to hackers and malware, and potentially drive customers away. ⁣ ⁣ Think of it this way,⁣ ⁣ If you just bought a Ferrari, would you put sand in the gas tank?!⁣ ⁣ On one hand, you don’t want to blindly go out and spend big bucks on top-of-the-line options that you’ll never use or understand. ⁣ ⁣ On the other hand, having this technology in place can make a big difference behind the scenes … even if you never know it’s there. ⁣ ⁣ LEARN MORE⁣ LINK IN BIO

It’s a good question — and one we get a lot here at Goodman Creatives. ⁣
⁣
The short answer is that cheap web hosting can slow down your website, leave you vulnerable to hackers and malware, and potentially drive customers away. ⁣
⁣
Think of it this way,⁣
⁣
If you just bought a Ferrari, would you put sand in the gas tank?!⁣
⁣
On one hand, you don’t want to blindly go out and spend big bucks on top-of-the-line options that you’ll never use or understand. ⁣
⁣
On the other hand, having this technology in place can make a big difference behind the scenes … even if you never know it’s there. ⁣

What do you miss most about travel? Personally, I always love long transportation rides. A chance to see the natural ebbs and flows of local life. Villages. Countrysides. Cities. Landscapes. People get on. People get off. Food vendors come on. I eat something yummy. On to the next stop.

“There’s never enough time”

Sound familiar?

Most people tell themselves that daily.

I certainly do.

And what does that lead to?

Nothing good!

» Overwhelm.
» Stress.
» Anxiety.
» Frustration.
» Anger.

These are the results of “there’s never enough time.”

Here’s the thing …

😱 IT’S ALL A HUGE LIE!!!

“There’s never enough time” is a limiting belief — a construct of the human brain — a vicious cycle and a broken record.

There’s ALWAYS enough time.

The question is, what do we do with it?

As human beings with free will, we get to CHOOSE what we do in every moment.

Anything can be a distraction, if we let it.

🚀 Elon Musk once said:

“””“You have enough time.
168 Hours/week

40 at work
+ 7 at gym
+ 56 sleeping
= 65 HOURS LEFT!

Stop wasting, start doing.”“””

Granted, this is an oversimplification by a man who probably has no idea what “normal life” is like.

It assumes that we all work 8 hour days, exercise daily, and get a solid 8 hours of sleep every night.

It doesn’t include transportation, eating, getting dressed, pooping, family time, relationships …

And, regardless of Elon’s math, here’s a fact.

🌈 At any moment, you can change your reality.

When those old, familiar feelings come up - you can choose to go down the same old rabbit hole.

Or, you can choose to take a breath, feel it fully, and move on with your day.

Choose how to spend your time, and accept the consequences of those decisions.

That’s my goal these days.

I’m done being stuck in this cycle.

It gets me nowhere … fast.

🦋IT’S TIME FOR A CHANGE 🦋

Yesterday, I woke up with that same old feeling.

💣 It’s time to break the cycle. 💣
