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...

Good day all. We're heading into the third quarter of the first month of this New Year and it's time to get back to our marketing training.  This year your business goals should be growing. Time is marching on and people are waiting for your product or service. This year you are going to get your business certified with the federal government, with the state and local governments and if you live in another country don't worry your government has programs to purchase your products or services and if they don't the U.S. Government purchases a large percentage of its products and services from foreign entities you just need to do the research. Start with the web links below https://www.usaid.gov/partnerships   https://www.state.gov/s/partnerships/ The US Government does not do anything but purchase everything from vendors and insure that things are available for others. Think about it the majority of government jobs are program analyst and program managers. T...

  Good morning, it's a great day and the month is moving along.  It's May and a month shy of the mid-year check.  This post is to remind those who say they want to create for their generational legacy.  What are you waiting for?  I speak with those who keep making excuses.  I speak with those who say I need this, or I need that.  I can tell you that yes they could use those things to get their dream off the ground and running, but I will also tell you that every excuse was created in a classroom of doubt and fear starting in grades Kindergarten through 12th grade.  I fit the same category.  I often put things off and find reasons not to move forward.  I am always coming up with a new idea and if it doesn't take off quickly, I get bored or lose interest.  I have often jumped back and forth in and out of working for a company to generate fast cash, which seems to always end with me being a little farther behind th...

We are well into fall and I am back on-line, thanks to a friend/client who found value in the lessons here at D.S.Woodard Consulting, High Achievers Academy and did me a huge favor assisting me in getting back on-line sooner than I would have.  I have multiple things that I am working on as usual and one of which is setting up a school, funding, curriculum, etc. so, Mr. Curtis your part that you played was very vital and largely appreciated. I hadn't even realized that the amount of time that has passed was more than a full month.   Now on to the lesson for today.  I have been working with a group of individuals who have not the slightest clue about how to treat customers.  They are unaware of the concept of customer service and it shows up daily and causes so much frustration to the consumers that they loose a tremendous amount of business. To the customer, client, consumer it's all about them and that's all they care about, they are not interested ...

It's that wonderful time of year again. Fun in the sun for the next three months.  A few more days and we will officially enter into the summertime.  June is always a great place for us to pause and do a major review of where we are in our businesses here at DS Woodard Consulting .   I like to encourage you to do it at the same time every year because it then becomes automatic. Those who have followed me for a few years know that I do my best to maintain consistency in the message given to all who care to listen.  Our aim on this blog is generational wealth in our finances, our health, and our relationships. I started this post a few days ago and it has a beautiful picture of a beach in Florida, not Orlando, but Florida where today hatred has once again raised its persistent head. I want to say that I'm not sure what the country can do to curtail the violence. It appears that those who choose to take lives can easily get whatever tools are necessary for ...

How much time do you think you have? I ask this because we tend to think that we have all the time in the world.  Then as you view the pic to the left of these words we see a soul transitioned that we thought had an unlimited amount of time.  He thought he had so much time that at the age of 57 with all of his worldly goods he (allegedly) had no will prepared for those he would leave behind.   One of my mentors who I adore, the late, Jim Rohn often said , " An apple a day keeps the doctor away. What if that's true?" What if it is true and we never ate an apple, which is something we could easily do?  What if those who ate apples daily never get poor health?    Use this same analogy for walking daily.  What if you went for a walk daily just up and down the street you live on for a mile or two?  What if that kept your blood pressure at the optimal rate?  What if that kept your blood sugar levels low regardless of the amo...
