Back To School is not Just for your Children!

 


Greeting's High Achievers!  This month is the time when your young ones, or if you're like me your grandchildren return to the routine of Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Social Skills, and Homework.  However, this is a great time for us, the care-givers to increase our bank of knowledge and influence. 

 What are some subjects that you have always been curious about?  What are some books you've always wanted to read?  What are some skills you currently desire to gain?  Today is the day to begin to ask yourself these types of questions. 

  DSWoodardConsulting has published our newest book "We Only Die Once. We Get to Live Every Day! " It teaches personal and professional development.  It is a combination of 3 different workshops being developed for our online audience, they will be available in the late fall.   The hardest thing in life is to create time for yourself to be who you said you wanted to be when you came to the planet.  Life moves at a fast pace, and others are always looking for ways to infringe on your time.  As I always say, time is our most valuable asset and our time is finite!  Each and every moment that you have can't be spent pleasing others.  Learning how to say no is hard, but you have to practice it, let the pain of the other person's feelings roll off your heart and continue on with what is important to you.  This is easier said than done, trust me I know.  I have 3 adult children, and they are so used to mom stopping her life for them and moving heaven and earth for them.  The quick video below Dr. Wayne Dyer explains it really well.



The wise man knows he knows nothing, the fool thinks he knows all." Chinese Proverb 
 The amount of time that we have is unknown, the thing I think about often is, how do we know we are dead when we die?  Ask yourself how do I know I've lived today?  Let's see if we can take some steps towards achieving our goals this week.  Look up some classes online.  Create a plan to take a mentorship for a year in a course of something you've been thinking about venturing into, like maybe a real estate investing class.   Promise yourself that you will push yourself beyond your normal limits.  Let's check back in with each other in a few days or a couple of weeks.

To your success,
D.S. Woodard

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 grandchildren at the pool in Miami on Tha

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 are very low.  Many business owners have no id
