This one took me a few moments to figure out.  What?  Are you saying that I sit at home all day doing my nails and playing games on the web?  To be honest, I felt like answering worst than this, but being in polite company, I moved on.

Regardless of the above, the statement in itself does ask that maybe a clarification of  “What Do I Do All Day” be put forth.  In other words, as a Virtual Assistant, working with no supervision from a “Boss” what do I really do?

Well, to put it simple, when 6 pm rolls around and I realize that I am still working, I also wonder. In other words: Where did the day go?

Working as a Virtual Assistant does not mean that it’s free game here. On the contrary, you are your own Boss. So what do you think happens? You work and you work hard because your company represents who you are! It’s your dream, the reason for the 10 second commute in the morning. It’s your life, and your pride.

If you have taken on the challenge to become the best VA there is and by the same token offer exceptional services, you do not need supervision. Why?

Because it means that you are responsible for your own actions. You set deadlines and you respect them. You are proactive, organized and most of all have a deep sense of duty.

So, with this being said, I ask you, do you think your Virtual Assistant is really working?

“This blog post was written in May of 2010.  Seems like yesterday!  Have I changed my mind about the above?  No.  If you are serious, and really love what you do for a living, working as a Virtual Business Support Specialist  is not a ‘job” but a passion. ”
