The VA Buzz. A free=2C weekly newsletter for Virtual Assistants on...
March 7=2C 2024=2C Issue #198

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

Belinda Sandor

At the beginning of 2023=2C I decided to start saying no more often. No=2C=
 to projects that weren=E2=80=99t moving the needle in my business and gro=
wing our community. No=2C to distractions and diversions in my day that to=
ok me away from how I wanted to spend my time. No=2C to people-pleasing.

I remember the moment I made the decision. I was sitting at my desk=2C rea=
ding an email that asked me to speak at an event unrelated to Virtual Assi=
stance. It was a perfectly reasonable request and one that I had said yes=
 to many times in the past.

I could feel a disconnect in the pit of my stomach when I read this email.=
 So=2C I gave it some more thought before answering.

And that=E2=80=99s when I realized it was time to start saying no more oft=
en. At first=2C it felt selfish=2C and that was very uncomfortable. But th=
en I realized that saying no would allow me to say yes to more important t=
hings.

As I replied to the email declining the request=2C I immediately felt a we=
ight lifted that I didn=E2=80=99t even know I was carrying.

I=E2=80=99ve learned that your impact expands when you choose what you all=
ow into your life and where you give your time. This happens for two reaso=
ns: you=E2=80=99re no longer on auto-pilot=2C and you are focused on what=
 matters to you.

This is a significant mindset shift. To be successful=2C you=E2=80=99ll ne=
ed to get clear on what you=E2=80=99re trying to accomplish and why it=E2=
=80=99s important to you.

In my case=2C building my VA business RocketGirl Solutions (https://thevac=
onnection.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3D329129029ab35cbb26ae77f1c&i=
d=3D984c8bfd4c&e=3Da9cedb2a61) =2C attending networking events=2C me=
eting fellow entrepreneurs=2C and spreading the word about my business wer=
e the most important uses of my time. By doing this consistently=2C I coul=
d provide for Emily and stop struggling.

Painting my office and organizing my digital files are not good uses of my=
 time if having a thriving VA business is the goal. While those activities=
 feel productive=2C it=E2=80=99s easy to see the disconnect once the goal=
 is clear.

Many fears keep us from stepping into action toward our goals: Fear of fai=
lure=2C fear of success=2C fear of the unknown=2C fear of the what-ifs=2C=
 and fear of what other people will think. I=E2=80=99ve seen from experien=
ce that if you listen to the fear and allow it to make decisions in your l=
ife=2C the fear will grow.

Action quiets fear. Plain and simple. You can=E2=80=99t think yourself int=
o business. The best learning comes from doing. You don=E2=80=99t need to=
 have the whole plan figured out; just the next step =E2=80=93 and take it=
=2E

All the best=2C

What Students Are Saying...

VA School has jumpstarted my business beyond what I could have imagined! I=
 started as someone who viewed myself as just a mom looking to work from h=
ome=2C and now I=E2=80=99m a bonafide business owner.

The friendships with other VAs and the mentoring from Belinda are what mak=
e this program stand out above everything else.

Belinda knows what works and she=E2=80=99s not holding any of it back. Any=
one who takes the leap into VA School is investing in a promising future.=

ng>At the beginning of 2023=2C I decided to start saying no more often. </=
strong>No=2C to projects that weren=E2=80=99t moving the needle in my busi=
ness and growing our community. No=2C to distractions and diversions in my=
 day that took me away from how I wanted to spend my time. No=2C to people=
-pleasing.<br>
<br>
I remember the moment I made the decision. I was sitting at my desk=2C rea=
ding an email that asked me to speak at an event unrelated to Virtual Assi=
stance. It was a perfectly reasonable request and one that I had said yes=
 to many times in the past.<br>
<br>
<strong>I could feel a disconnect in the pit of my stomach when I read thi=
s email. </strong>So=2C I gave it some more thought before answering.<br>
<br>
And that=E2=80=99s when I realized it was time to start saying no more oft=
en. At first=2C it felt selfish=2C and that was very uncomfortable. But th=
en I realized that saying no would allow me to say yes to more important t=
hings.<br>
<br>
As I replied to the email declining the request=2C <strong>I immediately f=
elt a weight lifted that I didn=E2=80=99t even know I was carrying.</stron=
g><br>
<br>
I=E2=80=99ve learned that your impact expands when you choose what you all=
ow into your life and where you give your time. This happens for two reaso=
ns: you=E2=80=99re no longer on auto-pilot=2C and you are focused on what=
 matters to you.<br>
<br>
<strong>This is a significant mindset shift. </strong>To be successful=2C=
 you=E2=80=99ll need to get clear on what you=E2=80=99re trying to accompl=
ish and why it=E2=80=99s important to you.<br>
<br>
In my case=2C building my VA business <a href=3D"https://thevaconnection.u=

ttending networking events=2C meeting fellow entrepreneurs=2C and spreadin=
g the word about my business were the most important uses of my time. By d=
oing this consistently=2C I could provide for Emily and stop struggling.<b=
r>
<br>
Painting my office and organizing my digital files are not good uses of my=
 time if having a thriving VA business is the goal. <strong>While those ac=
tivities feel productive=2C it=E2=80=99s easy to see the disconnect once t=
he goal is clear.</strong><br>
<br>
Many fears keep us from stepping into action toward our goals: Fear of fai=
lure=2C fear of success=2C fear of the unknown=2C fear of the what-ifs=2C=
 and fear of what other people will think. I=E2=80=99ve seen from experien=
ce that if you listen to the fear and allow it to make decisions in your l=
ife=2C the fear will grow.<br>
<br>
Action quiets fear. Plain and simple. You can=E2=80=99t think yourself int=
o business. <strong>The best learning comes from doing. You don=E2=80=99t=
 need to have the whole plan figured out; just the next step =E2=80=93 and=
 take it.</strong></p>
