Life is hard, but our mindset determines how we live it.

[Derek James @govkidmethod]

COR- “Do it this way”.
Prime- “That’s outside the contract”.
COR- “It’s close enough”.
Prime- “Ok, I’ll make you happy”.
COR- “Good”.
Prime- “We have a problem”.
COR- “Why’d you do that?”.
Prime- “You told me to”.
KO- “Why’d you do that?”.
Prime- “He told me to”.

[Derek James @govkidmethod]

KO- “Please respond to our Sources Sought”.
Prime- “You’re giving me a contract?!”
KO- “This is just market research”.
Prime- “Then why bother responding?”
KO- “It helps determine the set-aside”.
Prime- "Hmm...".

In the commercial space, you win by specializing in a service. In the government space, you win by specializing in a customer.

@DOGE Because if they don’t spend, their budgets are reduced by the amount that goes unused. Sigh.

Wouldn’t you get multiple quotes to replace your roof? The government is getting as many quotes from small businesses as they can. If you’re teaming with subcontractors, you need to do the same.

BELIEF is the most powerful force in human psychology.
