So I bought a new domain - here’s how it happened 🙂
So I went on Canva, as I’m won't to do, to turn some words I’d stumbled across into a word art picture thingy.
The only “problem” is, when you get to Canva, there’s often already made word picture thingies that sometimes have other words that I also dig, which distracts this Open Head to no end 😋
This time it was words I HAD to fix.
(Dunno if it’s all Gens or just the one I’m living with who won’t get this - but I had to explain it to him 🙃)
So I find a template that I kinda like.
But it had these words that I just couldn’t get behind.
It said -
____\\____
“Don’t stop when you’re tired, stop when you’re done!”
____\\____
Which I updated - as you can see below.
Then I added the hashtag, downloaded it onto my phone, and promptly forgot about it.
That was like 3 days ago.
Which is actually a great (unintentional) fit for my Emotional Authority if you think about it.
Today I was looking for things I could delete off my current phone (it’s sooooo full it’s ridiculous - Aleda calls me a data hoarder 😆)
Soon, I bumped into this image again.
And found I was feeling really fond of the hashtag.
Which made me think about do I really want to post this? When I’m without a game plan for the phrase??
But that kind of indecision - “should I post now, should I post later - what would be strategic” ... yada yada.
Is SO not for my no-strategy Right mind - ‘cause if I listened to that, nothing would get done.
So how does Andrea turn potential bitterness that could happen down the track into a win today?
Why, by buying a domain of course! 😂😂😂
My annual domain bill used to be hundreds of dollars. I LOVED buying domains 😂)
I’m down now to whatever 15 or so domains cost per year (under $150)
But every now and then ...
I know when I bump into a domain that just must be had :)
There’s only a placeholder page there now but .... drumroll... today I purchased:

[Edit to update: have now forwarded it to a new Instagram page 🙂 ]
The first piece of content for which, I apparently made on my phone .... maybe while still horizontal after a nap. 🤷🏻♀️
Much as I am now (only right now I’m pre-nap 😴)
Anyway, I trust you can see how different just updating a couple of words can shift the meaning completely??
And of course just goes to point out, each version could apply —- to the correct people.
So, no right or wrong, just conditioning to notice. That we can have awareness around.
Just because something says something quotable doesn’t mean the words apply to you ... this is where personal Design clarity can serve.
BUT they might be right for someone! :)
