Service to Many Leads to Greatness

Good evening all. This month it's time to start planting our seeds. What are your goals for 2019? Let's start there. This is our 1st quarter check. Pull out your yearly planner and turn to the page marked March 9,2019.

What does it say? Nothing! What does that mean to you? It says to me it's time to make a change. This is going to be Saturday so you should be free for a few hours to get some planning done.

Who knows what's next on the list of goals?
1. Make a choice.
2.  Create a plan.
3. Dream big, have a vision, do what you love.

For this post I want to talk about transitioning from step 2 to step 3 dreams.

This video is one of my all time favorites. I love the energy of this song, and I love this video.

This is how you must feel about what it is you're doing everyday. I know, I know, I know, it's hard to break away from the masses and what you've been told your whole life. "Go to school, get good grades, and get a good job. You'll have security and live happily ever after."

      In North America 300,000 federal government employees found themselves on the opposite end of that spectrum as 2018 came to an end.
There are no guarantees in this life, so why are we so afraid to do what we say we would do if we had all the money in the world or if all of our bills were paid?

F-false E-evidence A-appearing R-real


These are two examples that stop us from enjoying the life we came to live. In order to serve the many we must confront that which we fear that is great in ourselves and become greater. It takes one small step moment by moment daily, weekly, monthly, yearly until there is nothing left except our powerful self. Nothing stops us but us.

We talk ourselves out of progress quickly and that's why we freeze up and lead mediocre lives until we run out of what we think is unlimited time. Mel Robbins talks about this in her 5 Second Rule Talk.

I have a client who keeps telling me," I don't need your motivational speech, just get to it what's the next thing I need to do?" I just laugh because I don't motivate anyone. I inspire you to find what is inside of you and I am repetitive about it.
That's where we are today. I want you to go within and start with today, make a real decision about what you want your life experience to continue to be. Create a plan or get help like a mentor or a coach and then begin to implement the plan. Dream bigger than you ever have before.

 Last month you wanted to earn $100 extra dollars then change that number to be 5 times more. If  you wanted to earn $10,000 last month even if you didn't earn it increase that number to $15,000. I hope you get the idea of where I'm going here. Whatever your number was increase it by a tleast five.

I'm guilty of dreaming small or what I think is reasonable. I want you to be unreasonable for the next three months. Push it to the limit and then move beyond what you think is possible. If we want to be great we must serve one person, then we must increase that number until there is such a large number of people we serve that our life has changed as we are helping hundreds of thousands or millions of those who desire our product or service.

This is enough for now.
To Your Success,
D.S. Woodard

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...
