Set yourself up for success.

The VA Buzz. A free=2C weekly newsletter for Virtual Assistants on...
February 15=2C 2024=2C Issue #195

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

Belinda Sandor

Have you ever been on an airplane and heard the flight attendant explain t=
hat in the event of a drop in the cabin air pressure=2C everyone has to pu=
t their mask on before helping anyone else?

There=E2=80=99s a good reason for this - if you don=E2=80=99t take care of=
 yourself first=2C you risk being unable to help anyone else.

Think about that for a minute. Putting your mask on first helps extend you=
r ability to serve.

Yet=2C when working with aspiring and established Virtual Assistants who h=
aven=E2=80=99t achieved the success they crave=2C I find they do the oppos=
ite of what the flight attendant instructs. They give every bit of energy=
 to their clients and neglect themselves and their businesses. They end up=
 barely breathing instead of thriving.

Many people have been raised to think putting their needs before others is=
 selfish. For some=2C it=E2=80=99s deeply ingrained. If that=E2=80=99s you=
=2C I want you to consider shifting your mindset because you can=E2=80=99t=
 grow a sustainable=2C thriving business when you ignore your own needs.

When you don=E2=80=99t care for yourself=2C you have nothing to give. Peri=
od. You=E2=80=99re exhausted=2C stressed out=2C unhealthy=2C and unhappy.

As someone who had to learn this important lesson the hard way=2C here are=
 the key elements of self-care that will enable you to have a thriving bus=
iness:
1. Build a support system. Surround yourself with like-minded people who s=
upport your desire for a successful business. Find an expert with the expe=
rience you need to guide and teach you. Consider having an accountability=
 partner you can count on.

2. Set boundaries. It=E2=80=99s not up to your clients to respect your bou=
ndaries; it=E2=80=99s up to you to respect yourself and maintain your boun=
daries. When you start working with clients=2C it=E2=80=99s natural to wan=
t to please them. They say jump=2C and you ask how high.
And then you wonder why they=E2=80=99re asking you to jump all day and nig=
ht! It=E2=80=99s because you=E2=80=99ve shown them through your behavior t=
hat you will. More on this topic here (https://thevaconnection.us12.list-m=
anage.com/track/click?u=3D329129029ab35cbb26ae77f1c&id=3D34e7a83d48&e=3Da9cedb2a61) .

3. Teach the voice in your head to be kind. Everyone has a voice in their=
 head that talks to them. It=E2=80=99s completely normal. But until you le=
arn to manage the voice=2C it causes damage and harm and keeps you stuck.
Pushing the voice away or trying to ignore it will only make it louder and=
 stronger. Instead=2C what you=E2=80=99ve got to do is make friends with t=
he voice and teach it how you want to be spoken to. More on this topic her=
e (https://thevaconnection.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3D329129029a=
b35cbb26ae77f1c&id=3D2d1e53ebab&e=3Da9cedb2a61) .

4. Eat good food and exercise every day. To have a thriving business=2C yo=
u need energy and focus=2C which requires proper nutrition and moving your=
 body. Get outside every day for some fresh air. If exercise is new to you=
=2C start by taking a one-mile walk and build on more distance over time.
Schedule your meal times on your calendar and plan your menus ahead of tim=
e. It=E2=80=99s difficult to make good decisions when you=E2=80=99re starv=
ing.

If you=E2=80=99re telling yourself you don=E2=80=99t have time for these s=
uggestions=2C cut it out and make the time. Tackle one new habit at a time=
 and give yourself grace as you incorporate it into your life.

Running a thriving business is a marathon=2C not a sprint. Give yourself t=
he best chance of creating the success you want by taking care of you.

All the best=2C

If anyone is on the fence about joining VA School=2C do it. I did it last=
 summer and just got my 21st client. I charge $70-$75/hr.

I know that a lot of you are scared=2C which is reasonable. Or you're putt=
ing off school to build your skills first. Stop.

Being a VA isn't about memorizing how the concatenation function works in=
 a spreadsheet. It's about being a problem solver and getting the word out=
=2E

Belinda will walk you through setting up your business. And you're almost=
 certainly more intellectually prepared than you think.

Get out of your own way=2C and take the leap.
