The CK Daily – Chasing Your Dreams 💭
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is having a great week so far!
I took some time off last week to enjoy a family vacation to Hilton Head Island! If you’ve been reading the CK Daily for a while, you know HHI is one of my favorite places on earth! There’s just something about it that is so relaxing and instantly puts me in a good mood!
We were extremely fortunate to have fantastic weather the entire trip which meant lots of time outside running, biking, enjoying the beach, and laying by the pool! As I was enjoying the pool one day, I struck up a conversation with an older gentleman who was busy putting out some new pool chairs. It turns out he is the president of the HOA for the neighborhood we were staying in, and he informed me that he’s 81 years old which was shocking because he didn’t look a day over 60! He told me that he retired young and moved to HHI in 1990, paying only $150k for his home which is now likely valued at closer to $800k-$900k. He said the laid-back feel of the island keeps him young and active, and he feels so fortunate to have had so much time living there.
It was pretty inspiring to hear his story of making his dream come true and hearing how he has thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! I told him I was happy for him (although maybe a tiny bit jealous too 😉). Although things are very different now, the conversation definitely reminded me to keep my dreams in view and always be working towards them. Maybe someday I’ll get to follow in his footsteps and have a place of my own there!
What dreams are you working towards!?

Learning Center Article – FAQ – Simplex vs Duplex Fiber Cables
When you’re choosing cables for fiber optics, you have to get a few things right. You might be tempted to look for the cheapest cables you can find. After all, saving money is important.
But, price differences usually exist for a reason, and if your cheap cables aren’t designed for the network you have in mind, you’ll run into trouble.
