3 Things Donald Trump can Teach You?

This is the United States of America's President -elect, Mr. Donald Trump. If you have followed my writing and teachings you will find that I have written about Donald Trump the business man. I know that many are currently in awe and disbelief of the current events of last month's presidential election. I'm really not sure what everyone is so up in arms about? The country has been run by an African American for the last 8 years and most things have not changed from the status quo. I've been around for quite some time and not much was changed in the two terms that President Obama was the Commander and Chief or any other president before him which leads me to believe that there are others who are in charge and one man or woman is not the true leader of this country. However, I want to use the way Donald Trump operates as a business leader to share with you on how you can become successful.

Step 1

Focus

"My whole life is about winning. I don't lose often. I almost never lose."

Donald Trump

Donald Trump has the awesome ability to focus on a specific goal. This is how I knew he was going to become the president. Most business owners are too busy trying to focus on multi-tasking, and operate their business as an employee. I've done years of research of wealthy business owners of many different business types, and he was one I admired for his business prowess. So why would he say he almost never loses? He makes this statement because it is the truth. If you review his many endeavors, you will find that he rarely loses at anything that he sets his mind to achieve. He talks about his focus in his books. His evidence is his reported $3.5 Billion in assets. Someone said, "Success leaves clues." Like the Donald or not, he is very successful at whatever he sets out to accomplish. Learn to focus on the specific goal that you desire to achieve and refuse to see it any other way.

Step 2

Be Confident

"I like thinking big. If you're going to be thinking anything, you might as well think big."

Donald Trump

I agree. Why are most businesses unsuccessful? Most business owners don't study successful businesses and they are not willing to be confident as the mega businesses are. If they did a little research they would see that all of the mega businesses began as one man/woman mom and pop businesses or college students who had a thesis or a class project, or just needed a way to get a few extra dollars that they then turned into a passion. Some examples are UPS, FedEx, Microsoft, Yahoo, Subway, Walmart and the list goes on.

Take it from Donald Trump and think big and dream more.

Step 3

Never Quit

If you haven't read, "Think and Grow Rich you won't understand this philosophy, but if you haven't read that book I suggest you go out and get it.

The second half of the first chapter is about quitting. Click this link to read "Three feet from Gold," why you should never ever quit.

Even when the going was tough he never has given up, even when he was a bankrupt billionaire, he persevered, so we as business owners can take these 3 lessons from the man no one thought would be elected president.

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...

How Do You Spell Love? Time !

Good Morning High Achievers! The holiday season is here and spending time is so important especially now. Happiness is an inside job. The main reason for being great and creating a legacy is so that you leave great memories and traditions to pass from generation to generation. This year my family and I began a new tradition for what others call Thanksgiving. We haven't celebrated in a few years, since finding out that what we thought was the reason was not true, but we still continued to gather, now we have decided that what we would like to do is travel for this holiday, since the rest of society is closed at the same time. As a business owner and a person who works in corporate America I've found that we can get so caught up in the everyday hustle and bustle routine that we forget to pause, relax and enjoy the fun parts in life. We don't know how much time we have and it doesn't matter what our age is. These are my gra...

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...
