Things are always changing. As time moves things, places, circumstances, and events change.  The noise that is our life allows us to experience a multitude of opportunities. Growth is always a challenge, but once you take the step out on the limb, faith steps in and grants you the desired outcome. I am so proud of the people of color of America. It is so scary to challenge the establishment, and not for something that has happened to you, but for some other human who was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  I am also proud of the many Americans, and our brothers and sisters of all races and other countries who also join our movement and feel our pain, and seek justice for all races.  You too have proven that if we come together for any purpose together our strength has the ability to move mountains, and create change that is for the common good of all people. I see change and I see communities being born. I see Dr. King's dream becoming a reality. I know it's just a ste

Good morning everyone.  I trust you are well. I have been very busy over the last few months with many business endeavors, and with the mission I began for empowerment of the people who are like me. I am very aware that I have a diverse audience and I try to maintain that open communication that doesn't exclude anyone.  Many of you however may have noticed a difference in my post and my twitter feed.  If not that's okay.  I have personally begun a black power movement and as such I am aware of the continued fear, divide and conquer tactics atmosphere that the media perpetuates to get our focus off the real issues and on to the things that we have very little control over.  We are in an election year and no one is discussing the issues because of the continued police vs black people saga.  I do not say it this way to make light of anyone who has been a pawn in the chess game that plays out daily, those are real people who are being used to veil what the real agenda is.  Money

Good morning.  I am so excited for the business growth DS Woodard Consulting is experiencing. I am also so proud of those businesses that follow the blog who I have seen grow, stretch and become awesome. It is a challenge to slow down and create this blog that I love to share free information for others building their businesses, but I do my best.  I have several new projects that are extending beyond the D.C. Metro Area.  This is the goal and should be the objective of all of you. There is no reason for your business to stay local with the internet.  I recently watched a seminar about exporting and how small businesses should become apart of this industry, which is the world GDP and contains ninety-five percent of the worlds economy, which means as big as we want to think that America is it only accounts for about five percent of the world's economy.  That information is and should be mind blowing for those of you who thought staying in the US economy was the best way to go.

Hello, today was a crazy day.  I woke up at 7:30am and within 15 minutes there was a loud bang like thunder and lightning or a bomb exploded.  I look out the window and I see our rental car several hundred feet from where it was parked the night before.  Thankfully no one was hurt, but the person who hit the car totaled the car, and hit the utility pole splitting it and severing the power for all of our neighbors.  As I write this post we have had our power restored now for about 3 hours, but the Verizon box was knocked loose from the same pole so they are still here at 5:30pm repairing that.  The street had to be blocked all day.  I can't show the pictures of the rental car or the truck that demolished it, but if you wake up and see the car several feet away from where it was parked, the other car even several hundred more feet ahead of your car, and within a few minutes there are about 10 or 15 of these trucks lined up, stuff leaking, several police cars, and police officers

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 amount of sugar you took in daily?

Good morning. I am still mourning the loss of what seems to be a dear loved one to me. Prince's influence on the world was profound. I love the fact that he was unapologetic for being himself.  He was fine with being great and creating happiness, joy and love for the masses of people around this world.   This is evident by the outpouring of love that was felt so powerfully at the news of his transitioning. I want this post to reach you deep within your inner-being or what you call your soul.  I want you to know that you do have permission to be great right now in this very moment.  The thing that has always struck me with people is that we seem to think that someone outside of us is in charge of our life and the choices we get to make.  The truth is that you and only you are creating every second of your experience, the good, the bad, and the ugly.   Don't be angry with your circumstance. Take the necessary journey toward happiness and love. Create whatever you adore as i

This is my life. Hello my friends and followers. Welcome to 2016. I know it's close to ninety days in and you have not heard a word from me unless you follow me on twitter and that has been limited as well.   Things are great for me. I miss sharing the things that I live and learn with you guys, but as I told you in 2015, the format is changing and so am I.  I said all of that to say my focus is turned more towards me.  I actually see some of those who I mentor making great strides, so I am over the moon with joy about that and I don't need credit, I know what I have given to the Universe and now it is time to be a little more selfish.  I love moving forward and I am proud of all of you who are taking action, step 5 in my book Y.O.L.O  and that is why I decided to move on to the next thing I've wanted to do forever, but kept making excuses about why I couldn't.  There are a million reasons, but like the famous line in Star Wars, Yoda, "Do or Do Not there is

Good morning.  It seems that this month has moved so quickly.  We are a week away from Thanksgiving.  This is a great time of year for many families.  During the holidays many people treat each other kinder and are more giving to those who are less fortunate.   We hope that you have thought of those who have less and remember to give to them in any way that you are able.  We will be sending our contribution to The Community of Hope and their adopt-a-family program.  Be a champion for someone this holiday season. Champion has many definitions.  One is a noun; a person who fights for or defends any person or cause.  The other is the verb tense which means action; to champion, defend or support, a cause or person.  They mean the same thing and the definition sounds the same. One is being and the other is doing.   Muhammad Ali is a champion, his title he earned is The Heavy Weight Champion of the World, watch this 4 minute video to get a perspective on what that takes.  Muhamma
