I was attracted to paperback books before the start of my teenage years. The scent of the cheap paper and the feel of those thin cardboard covers owned me completely so very long ago. In particular, science fiction paperback books became a literal addiction for me. The End of Eternity by Issac Asimov stands without challengers as the most significant science fiction I ever read. This short Asimov novel was the way I […] - [Men with Cigars Art Exhibit](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2026/02/13/men-with-cigars-art-exhibit/): Las Vegas in 2026 is where you want to be for the annual SMOKEOUT®, the engaging public event running every year since 2000.

He radiated a very clear spark that anyone could see in him. He is pictured here with his wife, my grandmother, Katherine. Their likenesses in this photograph are precisely how I remember them from the days of my youth. In contrast to my paternal grandparents, I saw many other older-generation people throughout my life who seemed to me to have “lost their spark,” so to speak, as they grew older. I wanted a different way of living for myself that would enable me to feel truly alive.

This word was coined in 1971 by Yale psychologist Irving Janis. He wanted to diagnose a previously unknown and unnamed disease of the mind which he identified as interfering with people’s ability to make good decisions in a group setting. See this full explanation: https://neuroleadership.fi/…/groupthink-origins-of-a-word/ I see “groupthink” as an accurate term chiefly because I earned my master’s degree in 1976 in […] - [What Happens in Vegas...](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2021/05/01/what-happens-in-vegas/): Since I live here in Las Vegas, I see this place through the eyes and mind of a local resident–not a visitor. As a local, I accept without holding anything back that Vegas is, if nothing else, a place of business. Vegas is a place where people attempt to make money selling goods and services to others in ways that few other American cities ever attempt. Money gets spent on marketing slogans to attract visitors to come here to Vegas so they will spend their money on gambling, transportation, eating, drinking (alcoholic beverages), enjoying legal cannabis, hotel rooms, live music concerts, […] - [Appearance of Normalcy](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2021/04/22/appearance-of-normalcy/): So You Think You Can Appear to be Normal We all endured changes we never chose nor wanted starting in 2020. COVID-19 is why. Some of us personally know people who got sick and died in 2020 or 2021 because their bodies could not fight back against the highly contagious respiratory virus which continues affecting human civilization on our planet. Some of us personally know people who choose to deny the seriousness of this airborne disease. Such people choose to believe the virus is “fake” or somehow was caused deliberately by “partisan politicians” in the United States of America. We also […] - [Veteran Washington, DC Radio Broadcaster Finds Pain Relief from Medical Cannabis](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2021/01/14/washington-dc-radio-broadcaster-finds-pain-relief-from-medical-cannabis/): Evan Haning is a Washington, DC radio broadcaster you may have heard on all-news WTOP.

Studying Star Trek I am 100% certain that most people today who visit websites about Star Trek would not likely stop to think for even just a few seconds about scholarly studies which examine this show business phenomenon. However, I was never one of them. My personal interest in Star Trek began when I was in my final year of high school. As it happened, a certain science fiction space travel adventure called Star Trek was in those days fresh and new. I had never heard of Star Trek at […] - [Talk to a Medical Doctor about Cannabis](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2020/07/19/talk-to-a-medical-doctor-about-cannabis/): Professional Recommendation:  I recommend that you get in touch with Wildflower Medical Consultants in Las Vegas if you would like to make an appointment to discuss the medicine plant with a medical doctor. I personally have had very positive interaction and results with Wildflower Medical Consultants and this is why I recommend them to you.

Staying put in an apartment for longer than 30 consecutive days thus far has prevented me from getting the infectious virus. Yet the pressing sense of confinement started to affect my dreams, my moods, and my eating–not necessarily in that order. So it seemed the natural thing for me to do. I got this streaming service essentially as a distraction from real life. I enthusiastically recommend that you also […] - [Las Vegas Dispensary Rejected by City Council](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2020/02/07/las-vegas-dispensary-rejected-by-city-council/): Podcast #10 here digs deep into the City of Las Vegas government’s disapproval of a for-profit company’s proposal to open a marijuana dispensary within the city limits in 2020. The proposed location was within the City of Las Vegas Ward 2 adjacent to a master-planned community known as Summerlin where some of the most expensive single-family homes in the Las Vegas Valley are located. Residents who live in that affluent residential section of the City of Las Vegas largely took a “not-in-my-backyard” stance in their opposition to the opening of a marijuana dispensary within a small shopping center at the intersection […] - [Knowing the Medical Aspects of CBD](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/10/07/medical-aspects-of-cbd/): Guest Blog Post For many, CBD also known as cannabidiol is an integral part of their routine health. Health practitioners now recommend CBD for that treating pain-related ailments such as chronic pain, sleeplessness, arthritis, and inflammation but that’s not it since CBD has turned into an excellent treatment for treating people with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and insomnia.  The information available concerning medicinal CBD might be overwhelming for everybody who is yet to be aware of the idea. Most people are still curious about what does CBD do? Or the specific CBD many benefits they can derive from its use.  CBD (Cannabidiol) […] - [Cannabis Can Help Your Sex Life?](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/08/15/help-your-sex-life/): Find out whether cannabis can help your sex life. - [Big Pharma Takeover](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/08/12/big-pharma-takeover/): https://www.visualcapitalist.com/the-big-pharma-takeover-of-medical-cannabis/ - [Nevada is Far More Lucrative to the Cannabis Industry Than California](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/08/12/nevada-is-far-more-lucrative-to-the-cannabis-industry-than-california/): Nevada is far more lucrative to the cannabis industry than California according to The Motley Fool financial advisors. - [Just Say No to Drugs Made from Poisonous Snakes](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/08/09/just-say-no-to-drugs-made-from-poisonous-snakes/): (Original cannabis art created by Woody Goulart.) When I was growing up, I dreamed I would work for Walt Disney as a dancing and singing teenage star on television and in movies. Instead, I ended up on the air in Hollywood rock and roll radio on the fabled Sunset Boulevard. I guess I was lucky in my show business job since I did not have to dance or sing while wearing those black plastic mouse ears. Then, suddenly I felt not so lucky. The radio station was sold and real-life needs (such as eating) forced me to seek employment opportunities elsewhere.

This little former railroad town is unique in many respects. I learned in those days about a local saying that all you need do is add another “S” to the name so it becomes “NEEDLESS” — a real indication of civic pride, I’m sure. Now we are living in the 21st century and times have changed for the little town due to legalization of cannabis in California. Here is a believe-it-or-not news story about how Needles, CA is considering changes in their local […] - [CBG Ceremony + Yoga and Meditation](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/07/18/cbg-ceremony-yoga-and-meditation/): CBG Ceremony + Yoga and Meditation Guest Blog Post | Jul 18, 2019 | Cannabis Lifestyle, Events, Health & Wellness, Yoga | On Saturday July 14, 2019 I was able to participate in a private CBG Ceremony hosted by Takara Chanel Entertainment, Steve’s Goods, and Dip Devices  with Yoga Instructor Samantha Prock at the International Church of Cannabis in Denver, CO.  The purpose for this ceremony was to offer attendees the chance to try out a variety of CBG based products to really hone in on their individual experience of the product.

Even those who are loyal to his political party (Republicans, also known as the “Grand Old Party”) cannot escape the reality of the Nixon legacy: His deceptions while in the White House (1969 to 1974) directly brought about a deep distrust towards federal government officials. His political opponents nicknamed him “Tricky Dick” and that stuck to him even in death. He created the first “war on drugs” and the current DEA Schedule 1 status of cannabis is but one example.

The accepted standard in the training of marijuana dispensary employees is to focus upon what is being sold to customers. “To place a strong emphasis upon cannabis products can be an unwise choice,” says Woody Goulart, “especially due to wide differences in how medical marijuana customers shop inside dispensaries compared to recreational customers.” As a card-carrying Nevada medical marijuana customer who […] - [Economics Favors Marijuana Legalization in the USA](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/04/23/economics-favors-marijuana-legalization-in-the-usa/): A recent newsletter for conservative financial readers offers the opinion that legalizing marijuana in the United States would be beneficial just looking at economic factors alone. Bottom Line for Morality: From a justice perspective alone, legalization has strong benefits. And moving a cash flow stream from the illegal/black market into to mainstream is also a positive. Bottom Line for Investing: The cost-benefit analysis is one of the strongest (if not the strongest) argument for pot legalization. As we have seen with Canada’s recent national legalization, these forces are likely to continue marching toward federal legalization in the U.S. as well. - [Dr. Woody Cannabis Coaching Podcast 7](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/04/19/dr-woody-cannabis-coaching-podcast-7/): Dr. Woody Goulart talks with JIM WALKER.

Today, much has changed and Cheech Marin is no longer an icon of any counterculture. Now his Cheech’s Private Stock is a 100% legal, legitimate, and taxed business that sells cannabis products. I met him in person in Las Vegas at NuWu Cannabis Marketplace, just one stop on a very busy Vegas promotional tour he’s doing to promote Cheech’s Private Stock. When I told him I remember the very first time I heard Cheech & Chong’s “Sister Mary Elephant” (1973), he got a […] - [What is Cannabis Coaching?](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/04/08/what-is-cannabis-coaching/): It’s easy to get confused about what is cannabis coaching. That’s because so many people online have set up shop calling themselves “cannabis coaches” yet they are not really doing coaching at all. They are doing other things, but it’s not coaching. Read about the differences below. I am Dr. Woody Goulart. I am accurately calling myself a cannabis coach as compared to being called a cannabis consultant. My coaching changes (transforms) people in many ways that will make them better compared to how they were before they met me. Example: I teach people to have new sales skills to help […] - [Dr. Woody Cannabis Coaching Podcast 4](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2019/04/05/dr-woody-cannabis-coaching-podcast-4/): Dr. Woody Goulart interviews Las Vegas cannabis industry entrepreneur Jessica Tenelle Perry.

Listen here.    Description by Dr. Woody Goulart: In 1970 Craig Hines and I met while we were majoring in journalism at Cal Poly University in San Luis Obispo, California. We both ended up working in Hollywood within the radio broadcasting industry. Today, Craig is retired and he’s […] - [When Words Saved Indianapolis](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2018/03/18/when-words-saved-indianapolis/): There once was a time not so long ago when words spoken from a man’s heart delivered true impact upon humanity. No, this is not about some long-dead Greeks from ancient times that you have forgotten by now if you ever learned of any of them in the first place. This is about what happened in a big city half a century ago in the United States of America in our extremely violent culture. It was half a century ago when a young candidate was enthusiastically seeking to be elected that November to the office of President of the United States. […] - [A Request for Your Subconscious Mind](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2018/03/07/a-request-for-your-subconscious-mind/): Whenever we hear the name Edison we are reminded of light. The man was an American inventor and entrepreneur whose name was Thomas Edison. He let nothing stand in his way of achieving what his mind came up with. His surname rightfully stands today as a brand for innovation. Edison certainly is remembered for making many improvements upon other men’s inventions, notably the light bulb and telegraph technology. However, I think of Edison for something less well-known: He was quoted as urging people to make requests of their subconscious minds before they went to sleep at night. If someone were to […] - [Is AARP a Scam?](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2018/03/03/is-aarp-a-scam/): I was employed at the national headquarters of AARP in Washington, DC from 1995 through 2006 in their communications and outreach operations. These views and opinions that I express here are mine alone and do not necessarily align with the views and opinions of AARP. The very short history of how AARP got started is this: In Los Angeles during the 1950s, the first female high school principal (Ethel Percy Andrus) during her retirement formed an organization (the National Retired Teachers Association) to help make it possible for teachers to buy life insurance by spreading the risk of insurance payouts to […] - [White Hair Looks Cool](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2018/02/26/white-hair-looks-cool/): I worked for just over a decade in Washington, DC at the national headquarters of AARP where I developed an awareness about employment challenges for older workers (people age 40 and beyond) that I share here today with you. AARP switched their marketing focus to appeal to people born from 1946 through 1964, which was a departure from the initial AARP target audience of people born during or before the Second World War. This marketing change was so AARP could remain relevant at least from 2011 through 2029, the span of years that the baby boom generation hits age 65. Whether […] - [Your Career Choice Can Ruin You Financially](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2017/08/29/your-career-choice-can-ruin-you-financially/): [Originally written by Woody Goulart and posted online August 29, 2017 and then updated August 21, 2025.] Mama’s don’t let your babies grow up to be DJs or journalism majors. Your kids will soon after choosing to be in radio or television or journalism become dead broke and they will come begging for you as parents to let them move back in with you. Stop them before they make a terrible career mistake! You probably have at least heard of Kiplinger, a publisher located in Washington, DC that provides business forecasts and personal finance advice. Perhaps you’ve read their content online. […] - [Westward Ho...to Las Vegas](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2015/07/03/westward-ho-to-las-vegas/): “Westward Ho” was a phrase I’d heard way back when I was just a boy growing up in a small California town. My youthful curiosity led me, of course, to seek truth and answers that were readily available to me in comic books at the barber shop. I concluded that “Westward Ho” was proof positive that a kid could grow up to fight pirates on the high seas. I wanted to do that! I also felt a deep attraction to the profession of storytelling using text and images. Seeing and enjoying those comic books such as “Westward Ho” at the barber […] - [Getting Back to the Neon Fun Desert](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2015/06/30/getting-back-to-the-neon-fun-desert/): As October 2013 came to an end, so did my Las Vegas life. Or so I thought. Now, as June 2015 comes to an end, I’m getting to go back to live in the neon fun desert. This feels right. This feels like what is “supposed to happen.” So, I am going with it. I am leaving my home state of California to live and work in Las Vegas, Nevada. Yes, the weather can be impossibly hot. Yes, there also are other factors about living in the Mojave Desert that are challenging. But, for me, returning to Las Vegas feels like […] - [Why You Need a Website](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2015/04/17/why-you-need-a-website/): You only need a website today if you want to prove to others that you exist. If you are happy to remain in obscurity, you can get along just fine without having your own website. Individuals, small and medium-size businesses, and nonprofits need a complete, yet affordable, selection of professional and customized services to enable them to win over their particular target audience with online marketing. Usually this means paying today’s high prices for professional services to get your own website. That is just a waste. And so unnecessary. Nearly half of small and medium-sized businesses or nonprofits do not yet […] - [The Show Must Go On](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2014/08/13/the-show-must-go-on/): What would it feel like to be a stand-up comic who was scheduled to perform in San Francisco the night after Robin Williams was gone? San Francisco’s KCBS radio covered this angle of the larger story concerning the suicide of the beloved actor and comedian. My partner, Sam Glass, and I happened to have August 11 tickets to see actor Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe O’Brien on Fox broadcasting’s 24) perform at the Punch Line—San Francisco’s oldest running comedy club. The club’s announcer called for a moment of silence in memory of Robin Williams at the start of the evening’s performances. But, […] - [San Francisco](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2014/04/15/san-francisco/):      One hundred eight years ago, a terrible natural disaster descended upon San Francisco. The April 16, 1906 earthquake and resulting fire devastated the City and Bay Area. But, this is a resilient place that learned how to stand out from all other places in North America. I am working here now in San Francisco on the 17th floor of a building that stands on landfill and no, I am not afraid. If you follow my posts here bearing the stand out tag, you already know that I relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada from the Washington, DC area during the […] - [Go Buzz Power](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2014/01/08/go-buzz-power/): For everyone who wants to go out into the real world and harness buzz power: My eBook is available for in an updated edition (2022) at no cost to you.

I remember the panic that spread like wildfire that Friday morning through the elementary school I was attending. There was an awful lot of crying, and not just by us schoolchildren. Seeing so many adults weeping freely and openly without shame was very unsettling to me. I never forgot the feeling that something so overwhelming in real life had trapped me in shock and terror far deeper than any book or movie I had ever experienced. And yes, for me and countless other young people, […] - [Leaving Las Vegas](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/10/25/leaving-las-vegas/): I am writing this blog post to share the news that I am leaving Las Vegas. My exit from Sin City has nothing in common with the 1994 song performed by Cheryl Crow that was based upon the novel of the same name by John O’Brien, nor the 1995 movie starring Nicolas Cage also based on the O’Brien novel. To be more specific, you may be relieved to learn that leaving Las Vegas for my partner Sam and me has zero to do with alcoholism or prostitution or gambling. We are leaving because of my need to relocate to the San […] - [Mission High Memories](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/09/22/mission-high-memories/): What was then known as Mission Central Catholic High School in San Luis Obispo holds a special significance for many of us today. We survived high school during the turbulent Sixties and lived to tell. We were young and restless and believed that we would grow up to become the leaders of tomorrow. Look back at a time long ago in a place far, far away. It’s difficult to believe (for me at least) that the year 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of our graduating from Mission High School. - [Sharing my eBook Secrets](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/08/20/ebook_secrets/): There is a tactic available to you today that is leading a trend in online communication. This can help you stand out from your competitors in a powerful way. Let me tell you about it: I produced an electronic book (eBook) and associated online promotional campaign for a Southern California newspaper columnist. He is Don Barrett and he has covered the radio broadcasting business for nearly 20 years online at LARadio.com. Don turned to me to produce a series of eBooks for him to chronicle personal stories of USA radio people. I also produced the promotional website to support the marketing […] - [Two Cities](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/08/03/two-cities/): Once you make the decision to follow your internal guidance or your heart or your karma, there is no turning back. So, you think you can stand out? Yes, you can, but it may be more difficult than you can imagine. Those who follow my column on Ned’s Job of the Week website already have seen my commentaries on making transitions in life and career. My most recent column on this subject was on June 29, my birthday. In that post, I wrote about what has morphed into an ongoing transition in my life and career. I chronicled my August 2012 […] - [Birthday Commentary](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/06/29/birthday-commentary/): A few months ago I updated my commentary entitled “Should I Stay or Should I Go” — a title from that song from the 1980s by the English punk rock group The Clash. Here is update on the occasion of my birthday, June 29, about how to stand out. It is good to reflect upon your life at least once a year. Doing so on your birthday makes good sense in my humble opinion. As I reflect on this day, I realize how far I have come in my life. Literally and figuratively. I relocated from Phoenix, Arizona in 1995 to […] - [Kubrick Warned Us, But We Did Not Believe Him](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/06/01/kubrick-warned-us-but-we-did-not-believe-him/): American film director Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999) created unforgettable and challenging ideas in his storytelling such as the recurring theme that technology is a curse for mankind rather than a blessing. Kubrick warned us, be we did not believe him. Just 14 years after Kubrick passed, technology is taking away jobs that we humans will likely never regain. This is not science fiction. This is real. A sobering article entitled “After Your Job Is Gone” is a must-read for everyone who is employed right now. The central point of the article is that computerized automation already has made many Americans unable to […] - [Create Your Own Reality](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/05/27/create-your-own-reality/): Throughout Western culture in literature, song, movies and other artifacts there is a common meaning to be found: Each person has the capability of creating their own reality. Tapping into this ancient wisdom can save your life and reinvent who you are. A very recent echoing of this wisdom came from Jeff Immelt, Chairman and CEO at GE. Read his simple, yet profound message to a graduating class of college students to see what I mean. Immelt’s core message is powerful and merits requoting here: “We can’t wait for the economy to stabilize. We can’t wait for a time when there […] - [Fake versus Real](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/05/13/fake-versus-real/): American society in 2013 seems to have difficulties separating what is fake from what is real. Just look at the number of those so-called reality shows on television and you will know exactly what I mean. How any one us can hope to stand out from others is deeply affected by this American cultural context. Since my youth I’ve heard the phrase, “fake it ’til you make it.” To me, the phrase always seemed to be sarcastic and more than just a little shallow. I used to wonder why anyone would want to be fake given the choice to be real. […] - [Trending Tactic if You Want to Stand Out](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/04/28/trending-tactic-if-you-want-to-stand-out/): There is a tactic available to you today that is leading a trend in online communication. This can help you stand out from your competitors in a powerful way. Let me tell you about it: This past week I finished producing an electronic book (eBook) and associated online promotional campaign for a Southern California newspaper columnist. He is Don Barrett and he has covered the radio broadcasting business for nearly 20 years online at LARadio.com. Don turned to me to produce a series of eBooks for him to chronicle personal stories of USA radio people. I also produced the promotional website […] - [Achieving Courage and Competence](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/04/21/achieving-courage-and-competence/): Even if we do not live and work in Boston, we all were impacted this past week by life-changing events that happened there. Many lessons can be learned from what happened to help us stand out from everyone else. Because I lived and worked in the Boston media market years ago, I will always feel a deep connection to Boston and to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Like many other Americans, this week I was horrified to watch the media coverage of the Boston Marathon bombings and the subsequent hunt for the men who chose to kill and injure innocents on Patriot’s […] - [Go Offline to Stand Out](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/03/24/go-offline-to-stand-out/): One secret for those who want to stand out while conducting a search for a career job is to go offline. This may seem like highly ironic advice because it appears in an online column providing tips and advice about how to stand out in your career search. No irony is intended here. The reality is that yes, you can succeed in standing out while conducting a search for a career job or any job if you just step away from your computer. If you read something in the Wall Street Journal, you want to believe it, right? That publication is […] - [Paying for Career Advancement](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/03/16/paying-for-career-advancement/): Those who want to stand out from competitors in career advancement sometimes choose to pay others thinking that doing so will be a wise financial investment. Unfortunately, just because you pay for something does not mean you get value from it, especially when it comes to career advancement. I read a consumer law blog post this week about an investigation into one of the online companies that I paid to help me with my career advancement. The post concerned possible fraud and deception. These are words that you do not ever want to see associated with an online company that you […] - [Choose Who You Are](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/03/10/choose-who-you-are/): It may seem illogical, but people can take specific actions to define themselves, especially when trying to stand out from others. Make sure that what you are like on the outside is a deliberate choice on your part. There is no reason at all for anyone to allow what he or she is like on the outside to be left to chance or accident. Helping yourself to be deliberate specifically involves using a certain amount of psychology. Don’t worry, this is something you can do on your own. You don’t necessarily need prescription drugs or medical specialists. The psychology works best […] - [Sequester](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/03/03/sequester/): How do you stand out during the sequester? Do you want to stand out? Or, during the sequester is it better to stay below everyone’s radar? These are all good questions. Answering these questions may prove to be difficult, however. The effective start date of the sequester was March 1, 2013. Nobody really knows what precisely will happen now that the sequester is underway. Can anyone answer questions about when the impact of the sequester will be felt? Some reports say that effects upon employment will not be felt until April 1. Does this mean that we all have until April […] - [Empowered](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2013/02/24/empowered/): If you want to stand out, you need to become empowered. It’s really that simple. I am vice president of electronic communications on the board at the Las Vegas chapter of IABC. My Las Vegas presentation “How Powerful People Use Digital and Online Channels” was postponed, but wait! Here’s a very cool online version that you will definitely want to check out. It is never too late to start on your way to relevance. You, too, can become one of those powerful people who know how to use digital and online channels. I am offering a special discount to help empower […] - [Your Own Place in the Future](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2012/10/21/your-own-place-in-the-future/): (Personal Brand section landing page) Recently I posted here telling you of my enthusiasm and excitement for Amazon Kindle eBooks. I want to continue on this topic because I sincerely believe you can stand out with your own eBook that can enable you to claim your own place in the future. While I’m convinced we will always have books made of paper, the future belongs to the eBook format. I’m also a true believer in the fact that you can claim your own place in that future. If you get past the b.s. about how everyone can get rich quickly with […] - [So You Think You Can Retire](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2012/10/07/so-you-think-you-can-retire/): (Personal Brand section landing page) Long ago, you bought into the dream that AARP sold aggressively for decades along with affordable insurance plans. Simply stated, the dream you bought into was about you and your future. You put in your time at work. You maybe changed jobs once or twice. Mainly, you put in your time. Why? You bought into the dream. That’s why. It was a comforting dream to embrace. You saw yourself in the future with gray hair and wisdom. You saw yourself playing golf all day in this dream. You dreamed of drinking ice tea on the front […] - [Choosing Who You Are](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2012/09/30/choosing-who-you-are/): (Personal Brand section landing page) It may seem illogical, but people can take specific actions to define themselves. Make sure that what you are like on the outside is a deliberate choice on your part. There is no reason at all for anyone to allow what he or she is like on the outside to be left to chance or accident. Helping yourself to be deliberate specifically involves using a certain amount of psychology. Don’t worry, this is something you can do on your own.

In those regular posts, I covered the first step you should take to create or repair your personal brand. I explained how verbal communications skills and writing well are so vital to having and maintaining the best possible personal brand. How people perceive of your character helps solidify your personal brand. The same is true for your personal uniqueness compared to your competition as you seek a career position in the wake of the Great Recession and […] - [Las Vegas Photography 2012](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2012/09/20/las-vegas-photography/): Here is an example of my Las Vegas freelance photography.

If you scoff at this, you are choosing to be a scoffing dinosaur. How many birthdays you have had doesn’t matter one bit. Whether you like using computers or smart phones doesn’t matter either. If you are in a career search in the wake of the Great Recession, you want to stand out. You definitely do not want to be a scoffing dinosaur. The choice is very simple and […] - [Lessons Learned Living in the Mojave Desert](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/2012/09/09/my-latest-blog-post-reveals-lessons-learned-while-living-in-the-mojave-desert/): My latest blog post reveals lessons learned while living in the Mojave Desert… Surviving a Career Transition Desert For those of you who have never lived in a desert, you just have to trust me when I tell you: The rules for survival of life in a desert are very different from everywhere else. My desert living exper… ## Pages - [What If](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/hollywood-rock-and-roll-radio/what-if/): Let’s go wild for just a second here. Think about what might happen if someone were to create and produce a streaming television series (such as on Netflix or other international platforms) which takes actual events in Los Angeles during the late sixties and transforms everything into exciting, fictional storytelling? Would you watch that? Consider the thrilling ways in which multiple episodes streamed on television would offer narrative storytelling relevant for the present day based on the 1960s intense cultural clashes of folk music pushing peace and love, the star-maker machinery of top 40 radio business in Hollywood promoting groovy young […] - [University Teaching](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/university-teaching/): I have earned the advanced degrees that usually are required for a person to teach at the university levelf.

Hello, I am Woody Goulart and I wrote the very first book-length analysis and evaluation that had ever been done about Boss Radio and the derivative radio programming formats that followed. Others who were inside or outside that industry certainly can claim to “know” what really happened at 93 KHJ Boss Radio in the 1960s and then at K100-FM in Hollywood in the 1970s. But first, think about this: Would you rather read the actual spoken words collected from a […] - [Scheduling Time with Dr. Woody](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/scheduling-time-with-dr-woody/): This scheduling feature is still in development and is not yet available to the public.

You might wonder why the adjective boss was selected in the context of naming the radio format on station KHJ in 1965 in Los Angeles. Isn’t the phrase Boss Radio strange and illogical? Yes! But it seems that being strange and illogical can work when it comes to branding. I recall that the word boss was an adjective associated in my youth with young California guys who rode surfboards on the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean. At a basic level, the word was a 1960s slang term used […] - [Latest](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/latest/) - [New](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/new/) - [Owner's Manual for Your Mind](https://woodygoulart.com/index.php/owners-manual-for-your-mind/): This is a full transcript of the audio recording.
