The VA Buzz. A free=2C weekly newsletter for Virtual Assistants on...
January 8=2C 2024=2C Issue #190

** Hello!
------------------------------------------------------------

Belinda Sandor

Starting a business as a Virtual Assistant can feel like a roller coaster=
 ride. One day=2C you're excited; the next=2C you're discouraged; and the=
 next=2C you wonder what you were thinking.

In 2010=2C when I was starting my Virtual Assistant business=2C RocketGirl=
 Solutions (https://thevaconnection.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3D3=
29129029ab35cbb26ae77f1c&id=3D4188ae8055&e=3Da9cedb2a61) =2C it was=
 not an ideal time to begin a new venture.

I had six figures of debt=2C seven years of unpaid back taxes=2C no job=2C=
 and a failed marriage; I was a single mom and had to sell my home.

I was also about to turn fifty=2C and as silly as it sounds now (at 62)=2C=
 I thought I was too old to change and had missed my chance to have the li=
fe I always wanted.

If this is how you feel=2C I want you to know it's not too late. But I als=
o want you to know that if you want to change your life=2C you will have t=
o do something different and probably (at least temporarily) uncomfortable=
=2E

I often see aspiring Virtual Assistants in the beginning stages of their b=
usiness=2C "playing office" - setting up their desks=2C organizing their h=
ard drives=2C and learning new programs - instead of doing the things that=
 will bring them clients=2C like networking=2C building their email lists=
=2C and sending out email newsletters consistently.

Albert Einstein said=2C "The definition of insanity is doing the same thin=
g over and over and expecting different results." Even though I knew this=
=2C ignoring this advice is precisely what got me into so much trouble all=
 those years ago.

My strategy was to keep working harder and harder at the same things (that=
 weren=E2=80=99t working)=2C believing that time would make a difference t=
hat I would finally catch a break and that=2C somehow=2C the Universe woul=
d sweep in and save me.

If that's you=2C let's learn from my mistakes and start today doing someth=
ing different. Here's what I suggest:
1. Download my free guide called Networking Secrets for Virtual Assistants=
 (https://thevaconnection.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3D329129029ab=
35cbb26ae77f1c&id=3Db918c3a236&e=3Da9cedb2a61) .
2. Commit to reading it and set a deadline for yourself to finish.
3. Take notes and write all over it as ideas and thoughts come to you.
4. Decide one action step you can take today and take it.
5. Decide one action step you can take tomorrow and put it on your calenda=
r.
6. Repeat step 5: Every. Single. Day.

I want you to know that the path to success rarely travels in a straight l=
ine. There will always be twists and turns=2C ups and downs. What matters=
 most is that you keep moving forward=2C doing the things that will make a=
 difference.

I'm cheering you on each step of the way! I'd love to hear how it's going=
 for you. Please hit reply and let me know.

You've got this!

All the best=2C

** Lessons from the Cockpit: Mindset Shifts For Networking
Tuesday=2C January 9=2C 2024 at 10:30 AM ET
------------------------------------------------------------
You've likely heard networking is a great way to grow your business=2C but=
 it leaves you feeling terrified. Don't worry=2C you're not alone.

In this episode of Lessons from the Cockpit=2C we'll talk about what netwo=
rking actually is (you might be surprised) and how to take the pressure of=
f so that you can learn to enjoy this valuable activity.

** The RocketGirl Show: I Hear Voices
Thursday=2C January 11=2C 2024 at 11:30 AM ET
------------------------------------------------------------
The most powerful voice you=E2=80=99ll ever hear is the one that=E2=80=99s=
 inside your own head. And if you=E2=80=99re like most of us=2C it speaks=
 to you in harsh tones and with words that you would never say out loud to=
 another person.

Although unpleasant=2C it's completely normal!

But until you learn to manage the voice=2C it causes damage and harm and k=
eeps you stuck.

In this episode of The RocketGirl Show=2C I'll give you a  strategy to tur=
n it around and train this voice to be kind.

 One day=2C you're excited; the next=2C you're discouraged; and the next=

<br>
I had six figures of debt=2C seven years of unpaid back taxes=2C no job=2C=
 and a failed marriage; I was a single mom and had to sell my home.&nbsp;<=
br>
<br>
<strong>I was also about to turn fifty=2C</strong> and as silly as it soun=

If this is how you feel=2C I want you to know it's not too late. But I als=

<br>
<strong>I often see aspiring Virtual Assistants in the beginning stages of=

rganizing their hard drives=2C and learning new programs - instead of doin=

 the Universe would sweep in and save me.<br>
