Why More Businesses Are Leaving Old Servers Behind and Moving to the Cloud
For many small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs), technology decisions have centered around buying and maintaining on-premise servers. It was the standard approach for decades: purchase the hardware, set it up, and store your company’s data internally. But in today’s fast-moving business world, that model has become outdated, costly, and risky. That’s why Preston Office Solutions,

Why “Just Enough” Coverage May Not Be Enough
If you are like me, you miss the lower prices of 2019. Since almost everything costs more, replacing it also costs more. Car repairs? More. Medical bills? More. Rental cars? More. The tiny plastic clip that holds something important under your hood? Somehow, even that is also more. Price increases—we’ve all seen them, and everyone

Stuck In Pain? This Could Be Why
Have you ever wondered why an injury never fully resolves—even after rest, stretching, chiropractic care, massage, or physical therapy? Why does the pain improve for a while, only to return?

Exercising Good Judgment
When I was in high school, we seemed to have many assemblies. On one such day, my friends and I thought it would be a good idea to leave campus during that morning’s assembly. Other kids were doing it, and it seemed like a good excuse to get out and go to the local convenience

As humans, we often default to compromise. We tend to think in terms of “or.” Yet problem solving and thriving are more commonly the result of implementing the “genius of and.” A former FBI hostage negotiator, Chris Voss, teaches that when negotiating a deal, you shouldn’t compromise and “split the difference,” because neither party gets

Cast. Strip. Pause. The Skill Most People Skip in Life
I still have my old fly rod. A Fenwick. Nothing fancy. Not even close to the top of the line when I bought it and definitely not now. The cork is worn smooth from years of use, and the reel has a soft rattle if you shake it just right. If you lined it up

Purrs, Paws, and Peace of Mind: Emotional Well-Being Through Pet Companionship
