It's January 2014, it's go time!!

Good evening. Today is a great day and we are well into January this 7th day 2014. We have made our goals list for this month, and are beginning to create our 90 day goals list.
What have you set for your first month of 2014 goals and objectives? We hope you made some goals that are easily achievable and some that stretch you. This is a long month so take advantage of the extra time to to push the momentum into your 90 day goals.

You should be very good at setting goals and objectives by now, since that is all we trained on during 2013. If not feel free to purchase our book, "Y.O.L.O" available on Amazon.com.
This is what your goals list should look like:  This is not anyone's list I just made up what most people want to do, I used a sales person, but you know what your goals are and should just use this as a guide.

January-March Goals (90 days)
  1. Earn $500 more than last month.
  2. Lose/gain 3-5 pounds
  3. Work out 3 times per week
  4.  Pay off Christmas credit bills
  5. Look for new job
Now the second step is to make these goals more achievable.  So the second part to the list will be like this:

 90 day goals (sub-list)
  1. (a). Sell 15% more of my product or service than last month.    
          (b). Make 10 extra calls daily to prospects than last month.
         
          (c). Follow up on everyone who did not buy in the last 3 months.
     
      2.  (a). Join a gym close to work
      
           (b). Make an appointment with a nutritionist
 
           (c). Get healthy food list and purchase from the grocery store.

      3.  (a). Call credit card company to get an up to date statement

           (b). Decide how much you will need to pay each pay period to get it paid off.

      4.  (a). Get your resume' updated.

           (b). Place your resume' online with Career Builders, and other sites. 

           (c). Google the type of jobs you are interested in and make inquiries.

This is an example of how you should be setting your goals.  Clearly the sub-list can be expanded, but you should get it with the example.  It is time consuming at the beginning, but you will be very happy as you look back and see the goals you have achieved over time just because you wrote them down and then broke them down into smaller easier to accomplish steps.

January is a long month, but the longer you wait to begin the process the faster the year will go by without you accomplishing anything different than you did in 2013.  Good luck, and you can feel free to email us with comments, questions or concerns.  Our web address is dswoodard.com

    How to get Government Contracts, Quickly.

     Great Evening High Achievers!!  There are 3 days left in this last quarter of 2023.  We made it, and we are going to be even greater in 2024.  This was a trying and a wonderful year for our business.  We have cried and laughed as we learned from trial and error how to get things done.  There are more lessons to learn and more opportunities to take advantage of.  I want to share with you a few things about getting your business out of the rat race and into the government contracting place.   Do you know what M.B.E.'s, W.B.E.'s, V.B.E.'s, D.B.E.'s, and A.C.D.B.E's are?  No this is not Sesame Street.  These letters stand for Minority Business Entity, Women Business Entity, Disadvantaged Business Entity, and Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Entity.  This is how the government classifies different types of businesses for their sponsored programs.  The statistics for the amount of contracts awarded to these entities ar...

    Are You Doing Too Much? How Do You Know?

    From my I-Phone  Greetings High Achievers!! It is the middle of the summer season.  It has been such a hot summer, yet I still find time to get out and walk daily.  The photo to the left is of a flock of geese crossing the lake that we walk across.  I wanted to share this for two reasons, one it's beautiful and two every photo on the internet costs money.  I understand that people like to get paid, but there was a time I could get quality photos with a few clicks.  Well what's been going on in your business world?   I have been building a few things as usual.  Many times I think I'm doing too much.  Often I think I'm not doing enough.  As soon as I think that one of my business partners decides that they want to be so active and push the business along for five minutes, and then I'm on my own again.  Have you had times of  discouragement in your business endeavors?  I'm sure we all have.  This past year I have fo...

    You Have to Know When it's Time !

      Hey High Achiever's.  I love you all and love sharing advice with you.  I have tried for more than a year to get Google to allow me to monetize this platform.  I'm not sure what I am not doing correctly, but I have shared for 15 years.  Unless I figure out the code, this channel will be shut down this year 2024.  I will give you the information to follow me on a new platform soon.  Thank you for your support.   To Your Success, D.S.
