The Propeller – Let’s Make It Happen! – 4-7-2024

Any Moment Can be a New Beginning

We humans are irrational. 

We add undue weight to certain milestone dates, while dismissing others.

It’s why we promise to change our lives every New Years Eve, or why we reflect on our decisions each time we reach a major birthday.

But this is the wrong way to approach life-changing decisions. 

Any moment can be a new beginning.

And a random Monday in April is the perfect time to embrace that idea. 

Let’s imagine for a second that you set yourself big and exciting goals for 2024.

What happens if you begin to fall behind on those goals?

What’s the plan if you feel like you’re not going to reach them this year?

If your immediate answer is “I’ll wait until next year”, we need to talk. 

The average life expectancy in the USA is just 80.9 years.

You’re probably at least a third, or more than half of the way through your time on this earth already.

If you only have another 20-50-or-so chances to reset your life, you’re quickly going to run out of time. 

But it doesn’t need to be this way, because any moment can be a new beginning.

So let’s change the scale of how we imagine new beginnings.

What if you approached every Monday with the same energy of renewal that you bring to each new year?

What if you decided that the start of every week was an opportunity to reset, recalibrate, and make sure that you’re building a life you’re proud of?

Suddenly, you go from having 80 new beginnings in life, to 4,160. 

You don’t need to do anything to win those additional 4,080 opportunities. 

You just need to change the way you think.

Every Monday can be a chance for you to begin again in life.

Including tomorrow.

What are you going to do with this new beginning?

Avoid Using Debit Cards

I don’t use debit cards.

I only use credit cards – other than to make the occasional ATM withdrawal, my bank/debit card never sees the light of day. And it’s largely for these main three reasons:

Wi-Fi 7 Routers are here

Wi-Fi 7 routers are the latest generation of wireless routers for your home or office, promising to revolutionize your network. But with so many router options available, is Wi-Fi 7 worth the upgrade? Here’s a breakdown of the key improvements Wi-Fi 7 offers:

Blazing-Fast Speeds: Wi-Fi 7 boasts significantly faster speeds than its predecessors. Imagine downloading a movie in seconds or streaming 4K content without buffering. Wi-Fi 7 utilizes wider channels and more efficient data transmission techniques, achieving speeds exceeding 5Gbps under ideal conditions – that’s multiple times faster than even high-end Wi-Fi 6 routers!

Reduced Latency: Latency refers to the delay in data transfer. Lower latency is crucial for real-time applications like online gaming and video conferencing. Wi-Fi 7 tackles latency issues through innovative features like Multi-RU (Multi-user Resource Unit), ensuring your online actions feel instantaneous.

Improved Capacity: Our homes are filled with an ever-growing number of Wi-Fi connected devices. Wi-Fi 7 addresses this challenge by efficiently managing connections. With Multi-Link Operation, your router can intelligently assign devices to the optimal frequency band, avoiding congestion and ensuring a smooth experience for everyone.

Backward Compatibility: No need to worry about replacing all your devices. Wi-Fi 7 routers are backward compatible, meaning they’ll work seamlessly with your existing Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 6 devices.

Investing in the Future: Wi-Fi 7 is the future of wireless networking, paving the way for bandwidth-hungry applications like AR/VR and smart home advancements. Upgrading now ensures you’re prepared for the ever-evolving world of technology.

While Wi-Fi 7 routers are currently more expensive than their predecessors, the significant speed, latency, and capacity improvements make them a worthwhile investment for future-proofing your network.
