What's a Virtual Assistant?

A Virtual Assistant is a business owner who provides administrative support and specialized services to assist businesses and executives with their overflow. A Virtual Assistant can handle any task that is usually handled by an in house employee, but unlike an employee, a Virtual Assistant shares your goals to succeed in business -- we only succeed if our clients succeed.

Time to Relax

As business owners we tend to get so wrapped up in the day to day operations of our business that we forget to take time to stop and relax. Even when we do take a moment to slip into a warm bubble bath or relax in our favourite lounge chair we find our thoughts drifting back to business … so I started to ask myself why …

For myself the answer is simple, I have put my whole heart and soul into starting and developing a thriving business. It is very difficult to turn that off just because the “experts” tell us that we can’t let our businesses consume us. So what is a business owner to do, the answer is time and education. Just as it takes time to teach ourselves a new skill, it also takes time to learn a new behavior. Experts say it takes one month of repeated behavior before the behavior can become a habit.

So start small, dedicate 15 minutes a day to some form of relaxing whatever that might be. Treat yourself to an extra long shower, meditate, write, go for a walk - whatever that one thing is that will allow yourself to “forget” about business for just a short time.

We spend so much time worrying about keeping our bodies healthy we forget to also keep our minds healthy. Don’t forget that in order to truly build and maintain a thriving business it is imperative to keep ourselves alert and healthy too.

I hope you will join with me in this challenge to dedicate 15 minutes each day for the next month to yourself. I am sure that you and your business will both not only thrive but flourish.
