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

  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

  Great afternoon High Achievers!  This has been a wonderfully exciting year.  I've had the chance to begin several new adventures in business ownership.  What are some of your fourth quarter goals? As a writer and a business owner and still working a job or two, life looks crazy on any given Sunday-Saturday.  That's right everyday is a challenge.  Growth is important.  Study your craft, there is always more to learn. We're just beginning a few new partnerships that are stretching our boundaries.   As you grow mentally, physically, and spiritually, the you that you used to be is completely different.  The way you think changes if you are continually expanding your book of knowledge.   This video is where we all as business owners and employees currently are, it's the fourth quarter of year 2023, our businesses management company sent us a reminder email that it's time to complete the final quarter IRS tax form 941, so in a few days the form is due no later than Oct

 Happy Sunday High Achievers.  Today I want to continue my research on our  friends in Japan.  I found this article about how wonderful and clean the streets in the city of Shimabara on the Japanese Kyushu Island are.  In the 1970's this beautiful system that has Koi fish and fresh water is their public drainage canal.   View the full article here.    Learning about other cultures can be fun and quite interesting.  It gives us a broader view of the world considering we can now do business across the globe with the use of your cell phone or a laptop. I was able to connect to Ari's business Instagram account rather easily.  As our world neighbors grow closer to us, we should investigate what we don't know about them and their lifestyles. I want to share this video of a day in the life of a Japanese Baker.  You will notice the many details, cleanliness is of major importance.  This Japanese business owner works with her mom.  Her Instagram is @Ari_Pan  I used the google transl

  Great day High Achievers!! Today we are a month into Spring, how is your business looking?  Spring is the beginning of the blossoms starting to come forth from  winter plantings.  You can see the buds peeking out of the trees with beautiful colors.  The grass begins to turn from brown to a beautiful green.  Three months ago nature planted a bulb or some seeds and it waters, fertilizes, and feeds them with the sunlight then we get to see the results nature has produced.  It is something that brings joy and happiness and was worth the effort it put forth.  We often say it's a miracle, but truly it's a system that has been proven to work and repeated year after year consistently.   The same applies for your business or personal development goals.  This is a marathon, not a race.  You may have struggled during the winter months when it was cold and there was less sunshine.  It's Spring so you must be seeing growth in your business.  If you aren't then you have to take a l

Grand Rising High Achievers.  Today is a great day to make some changes to your business.  Looking at your business entity 12 months backwards, so March 2022 and each month until today March 9, 2023.  Time is one of our biggest assets that we waste and take for granted.  This journey as a business creator takes the ability to focus and to make change at a moments notice if necessary.   Speaking of change this will be a great week to  implement our new format.  The YouTube Shorts on sales training starts this week, Until we learn how to share them we will post them here. We are also expanding to new markets, like Japan to begin with.  We will be partnering with local vendors and leaders to make sure that those markets get the best we have to offer.    We look forward to collapsing the distance training to include those overseas businesses and business owners. This is an easy tutorial for you to look into this type of technology in Japan.  Remember change is good, and change is necessary
