Virtual Assistant First Blog Post

Hello Guys.

Welcome to my first blog post. Thank you for being here.

Here starts the dream of owning my own business. I know it will not be easy. I understand that it will be quite a challenge I am heading into. Now it is time for me to do the work for myself, for me to add value to others as a business owner.

There is so much fear and so many what ifs, it is times like these that I would draw upon a few verses of my favourite poem, Invictus by William Ernest Henley

...My head is bloody but unbowed
...
I am the Master of my fate
I am the Captain of my soul.

It's all a work in progress and a progress in work. It's about not being afraid to fail and not be fearful to reach out for help. It's about understanding what I am made of, my strengths and my weakness. It's about not being afraid to ask for my worth.

And yeah...it's about fear, lots and lots of fear...what if I am not good enough, what if I am a fraud who cannot deliver on promises....girl SHUT UP!....this is my internal dialogue most days. Then comes the strong ones- you have worked in Corporate Guyana successfully for over 20 years, you have lent support to small business owners and CEO alike. You have trained young Guyanese who have gone on to do great things with their careers.  And I consciously make an effort to hold on to this voice.

Everything takes time and yes, there is fear, but there is also heart-swelling pride and joy and hope, hope for all the best things in life.

Here is to starting and to take one day at a time. The Story has just begun.

Self Care- ME taking Care of ME

I love being able to spend time with my most favourite gal. ME! There was a time when being alone would have scared the sh.t out of me. At one time in my life, I would have always had to keep busy. My bestie said something that stuck with me until now, "What is wrong, don't you like yourself" I kinda brush it off and promptly went back to staying busy.  But somewhere along the line as I started on my journey of self-discovery, I began to understand why she would ask that question.  Taking time for me and my thoughts, as scary and chaotic as they are it was such a good move in the right direction for me. I generally spend my quiet time reading, deep thinking and writing in my journal. Sometimes there is no plan, I just wing it. I sleep, drink water, stay indoors and ask myself questions that I need answers to. Often I do not get the answers, but there are times when an entire plan would come through. I have learnt to trust the process and stay faithful t...

I thought this topic would be interesting because I myself was total in the dark on this so we will learn together.
