Why James

James Travis about

Godspeed Development is a resource website run by me, James Travis, to teach you proven strategies to automate investing and saving so you can spend your time and money on what matters the most to you.

I don’t believe in restrictive budgeting and excessive frugality when it comes to living your limitless life. I believe in drafting a financial plan and creating a system so you don’t have to stress about your financial future.

That means you won’t live paycheck-to-paycheck, the bills get paid on time, you’re investing for retirement, saving for your goals and most importantly you spend money on the people, things, & experiences you love – without feeling guilt or regret. You can finally be at peace with your financial situation knowing that you’ve already taken care of your everything.  

The best part is once your system is in place it works automatically, so you can live your life.

Who is James Travis

I’m a 28 year old who is a couple of years into his professional career. I wouldn’t be where I’m at today without personal development and financial literacy. I took a skill which I learned in a short amount of time and used it to improve my financial situation. 

I went to college over 700 miles away from home. College was easy, but expensive. The out-of-state fees nearly doubled the cost of attending school. I had money saved up but it was starting to run out.

how godspeed development began

This website originally started as a homework assignment: a challenge to set a goal and the steps to accomplish it. 

One week later the website you’re on was born. 

A few weeks after that I found a way to turn my newfound skill into a scholarship. From there my mission has been to teach skills that can be learned in minutes that will make a difference in your financial future.

When I started Godspeed Development my goal was help young adults reach financial freedom by setting up a personalized plan so you can live without financial anxiety and fear of the future. Since that time it’s been easy to find financial advice on the internet – but what’s gotten harder is finding ethical advice that doesn’t have an ulterior motive, trying to sell you something that isn’t intended to benefit you. 

This is where Godspeed Development fits in.

I want you to use my successes and my failures to reach your own financial and personal development goals. This is also why I share my good and bad experiences so you can make the best money and life decisions for yourself.

why I do what I do

My mission is for you to live without the limits of financial insecurity. I want to raise the quality of your life so you can reach your financial potential – it’s limitless.

I plan my life around being with the people & doing the things I enjoy because I have a growth strategy for wealth, but more importantly, for life.

What’s NOT in my wealth strategy:

  • Eating only rice and beans
  • Being told what what I can’t do with money-no vacations, no eating out, no fun
  • Limiting my dreams because of what’s in my bank account

Instead of risking freezing to death during the winter to save a couple of dollars on the electric bill. I choose to use money as a tool to live a life I enjoy.

If we can remove our negaitve emotions surrounding money we could use it as a tool to improve our lives. There is a better way to live that doesn’t include anxiety and fear. We can use psychology to focus on the big wins that truly matter so we can live our version of a limitless life.

My site is designed so you can create your own plan to live a limitless life where you don’t have to stress about finances.

Learn how I automatically reach my life goals by setting up a financial system which gives me the freedom to live my life knowing all the bills are paid, I’m saving, and investing while I spend freely on the things I love, guilt free.
