Government policies and funding priorities change with every administration, impacting businesses, industries, and individuals who rely on federal programs. The current administration has taken steps to freeze certain federal initiatives. They have also modified or halted them. This raises concerns for small business owners who depend on these programs for growth and sustainability.
Yet, despite these changes, SBA certifications continue to be a valuable asset. If you’re considering an SBA program, now is the time to move ahead. Being proactive will put your business ahead of the competition when new opportunities arise.
Federal Program Freezes and Their Impact
1. Small Business Support Programs
The administration has proposed budgetary constraints on certain small business grants and funding initiatives. This would affect programs like the Small Business Administration’s (SBA) loan assistance and mentorship programs.
2. Infrastructure and Development Grants
Several infrastructure-related grants and funding pools have been placed on hold for review. Businesses involved in public works projects, construction, and transportation would see delays in funding or contract approvals.
3. Healthcare Funding and Subsidies
Changes in federal healthcare subsidies and funding allocations can impact hospitals, insurance providers, and individuals relying on government-assisted healthcare programs. Recent freezes have influenced Medicaid expansion and federal insurance subsidies.
4. Environmental and Energy Programs
Certain renewable energy incentives and environmental protection programs have faced funding reductions or freezes. Businesses within the green energy sector must navigate shifting tax incentives and regulatory rollbacks.
5. Education and Student Loan Policies
Federal student loan forgiveness initiatives and education grants have been reassessed, causing uncertainty for students and educational institutions. Any halts in these programs affect financial aid and long-term debt relief strategies.
Why Businesses Should Still Get SBA-Certified
If you were considering the 8(a) Business Development or Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certification, you are hesitant. The same applies to HUBZone or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) certification, due to program freezes. Nevertheless, there are many reasons to move ahead with your application:
1. SBA Certification Puts You Ahead of Competitors
Even if some funding is delayed, federal agencies are still awarding contracts. Businesses that already have their SBA certifications will be first in line when funding resumes or new opportunities open up.
2. Certification is an Asset, Not a Cost
✅ It’s an investment, not an expense – SBA certifications open doors to financial growth through government contracts. ✅ It increases credibility – Being a certified SBA business boosts trust with government agencies and private-sector partners. ✅ It sets you up for long-term success. Once certified, you can access exclusive set-aside contracts. Non-certified businesses can’t access these contracts.
3. Policy Changes Happen – Being Prepared is Key
While some programs are under review, SBA certifications continue a long-term strategic advantage. Rather than waiting for funding shifts, getting certified now positions your business for future success.
4. SBA Programs Continue to Offer Opportunities
Most SBA certifications are still active despite administrative changes. Contracts are still being awarded, and businesses that act now will have an advantage in securing federal work.
5. D&H Business Concierge Can Help You Through the Process
We understand the uncertainty that comes with policy changes. That’s why we offer expert guidance to help you: 📌 Understand eligibility requirements 📌 Prepare and send your SBA application 📌 Navigate government procurement opportunities 📌 Develop a strategy to maximize your certification benefits

Government contracting and grant funding are competitive fields. Businesses and organizations must often navigate complex processes. They need to build credibility and stand out from the competition. Traditional strategies like networking, proposal writing, and compliance are crucial. But applying the Law of Attraction can give you an edge. It helps you naturally attract the right opportunities, funding, and partnerships.
In this blog, we’ll explore how to use the Law of Attraction to achieve success. You can position your business or nonprofit for success in government contracting and grants.
Understanding the Law of Attraction in Government Contracting and Grants
The Law of Attraction is based on the principle that “like attracts like.” The energy you project will influence the opportunities you get. Your thoughts and actions also affect these opportunities.
For government contracts and grants, this means: ✅ Focusing on abundance rather than scarcity. Don’t believe that contracts and grants are “too competitive.” Embrace the belief that there is enough funding and contracts available for the right businesses and organizations.
✅ Positioning yourself as a valuable partner. Agencies and funders look for reliable, high-quality vendors and grantees. When you project confidence, credibility, and a track record of success, you naturally become an attractive choice.
✅ Aligning with the right networks and resources. Successful businesses attract the best clients. Similarly, successful government contractors and grantees attract the best partnerships, teaming opportunities, and referrals.
Scientific research supports this concept. Confirmation bias (Nickerson, 1998) explains that our beliefs shape what we perceive and attract. If you believe your business is capable of winning contracts or securing grants, you will subconsciously take actions. These actions align with that belief. This alignment leads to success.
How to Apply the Law of Attraction to Secure Government Contracts and Grants
1. Visualize Your Ideal Contract or Grant
Clarity is key when applying for government funding or contracts. Instead of blindly chasing opportunities, take time to:
Find the specific agency or grant funder you want to work with.
Decide the types of contracts or grants you are best suited for.
Define your strengths, past performance, and key differentiators.
When you visualize your success, imagine receiving a contract award. Picture a grant approval letter. You train your mind to seek the right opportunities that align with your goals (Hill, 1937).
2. Develop an Abundance Mindset
It’s easy to feel discouraged in a competitive field, but the key is believing in the availability of opportunities.
Government spending on contracts exceeds $9 trillion annually (USAS), and federal grants distribute billions of dollars to businesses and nonprofits.
If one opportunity doesn’t work out, another one will.
Instead of focusing on “lack” (e.g., “I don’t have connections”), focus on “growth” (e.g., “I can build the right relationships”).
Successful government contractors and grantees keep a long-term mindset. They know that persistence, credibility, and value will naturally attract funding and contracts.
3. Align Your Business or Nonprofit with Success
Your business profile, proposal strategy, and branding should show the credibility and trustworthiness needed to attract government contracts or grants. Make sure you have:
A strong SAM.gov and Grants.gov profile.
A professional Capability Statement showcasing your skill.
Clear, results-driven language in your proposals and applications.
Positive testimonials, past performance records, and references.
When your business energy is aligned with professionalism, compliance, and value, opportunities will come naturally. Agencies and funders look for reliable partners.
4. Build Relationships and Partnerships
In government contracting and grants, who you know matters as much as what you know.
Engage in networking events, industry days, and government procurement expos.
Seek out mentorship and teaming agreements with larger prime contractors.
Follow up with contracting officers and grant program managers.
Instead of chasing opportunities out of desperation, build authentic relationships with government agencies and funders. Over time, your network will naturally bring opportunities your way.
5. Practice Gratitude for Small Wins
Gratitude plays a huge role in maintaining the right energy for success. Celebrate small wins, like:
Getting positive feedback on a proposal.
Making a new government contact.
Being invited to bid on a contract.
A study by Emmons & McCullough (2003) found that practicing gratitude enhances well-being. It also improves focus and performance. These are key factors in long-term business success.
6. Take Inspired Action
The Law of Attraction does not mean waiting for contracts or grants to appear magically. It means taking aligned, strategic actions while maintaining the right mindset.
Monitor SAM.gov, Grants.gov, and agency websites consistently.
Apply for small contracts or grants first to build credibility.
Invest in professional proposal writing services if needed.
Join contracting programs like 8(a), HUBZone, or Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB).
When you combine a positive, confident mindset with smart actions, you naturally attract more opportunities, referrals, and partnerships.
7. Let Go of Desperation and Trust the Process
Many businesses and nonprofits get discouraged when they don’t win a contract or grant right away. Still, trusting the process and continuing ahead will yield success.
Keep applying, networking, and refining your approach.
Avoid desperation energy—if one door closes, another will open.
Keep a service-oriented mindset: agencies and funders want high-quality, reliable vendors and grantees.
With patience, consistency, and trust, you will naturally attract the right government opportunities.
Final Thoughts: Using the Law of Attraction to Secure Government Contracts and Grants
The Law of Attraction is not about replacing traditional strategies—it’s about enhancing them with the right mindset, energy, and focus. By: ✅ Defining your ideal contracts and grants, ✅ Maintaining an abundance mindset, ✅ Aligning your business or nonprofit for success, ✅ Building genuine relationships, and ✅ Taking inspired action,
you will naturally attract the right government opportunities over time.
