Why is This Taking so Long?

Happy Sunday High Achievers.  I am so happy to speak with you once again as we press towards our goals, dreams and desires.  As I do these videos it is just like the blog post, I always have a general idea of the information I would like to convey, then I just speak or write from within my heart, so let's get to it.

If you took my advice from 3 days ago you visualized yourself being this great performer, like say Beyonce' , or you saw yourself being the best motivational speaker giving a speech in front of thousands of people like Tony Robbins, or you drew a blank!!!!

The last one is where most people find themselves.  I will do ten things that have nothing to do with the goal I'm trying to achieve and keep doing nothing all day until it's midnight, then I'm like I need to get this or that done, the whole day is now gone.


This is what the average person does and is what keeps us achieving average goals that don't lead to family legacy.

 This is the reason you must have a "why!"



Click the link to see my post on Simon Sinek and his Ted Talk on "Start with Why."

It is important to have a why.  I learned this as a sales consultant years ago.  The value of this is not just about our why, but everyone's "why" they do things.  To have success you must help others achieve what their goals are.  That's what this blog has always been about.  I have so much knowledge and I have always loved sharing it with others.

I know that the way we learn is repetition.  If you read all these post for the last 10 years you will see I repeat certain things again and again at the same time of year.  I have a very successful best friend who has a PhD. among his many accolades, but I've had to explain things to him multiple times before he hears, (comprehends) what I'm sharing or trying to teach and he will admit it once he gets it. Most people hear the words you are saying, yet they don't comprehend what you are telling them to do.

3 Things you can do to stop procrastinating daily as you begin and maintain your online business.  

I. Start with a daily plan the day before.  Write down 10 things you want to accomplish the next day, starting with the most important to least important.

II. Get started!!! "The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." Lao Tzu, Chinese Philosopher

III. Make yourself focus. When you see yourself doing something that has nothing to do with moving your business forward, tell yourself, "Get back to work." Brian Tracy.  Say it at least 5 to 10 times,  until you are able to snap out of the activity that is distracting you from quality business activity.

Bonus tip!!! Stay off any and all social media, during your business hours, this is a rabbit hole that you can never get out of.

Don't forget to share this post, share the videos, subscribe to the Youtube channel (1MrsWoodard Youtube), and leave comments and questions. 

To your success,

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...
