Thank you very much for sharing. It's nice to know that procrastination is something I can grow out of... I can't wait to see what the next year hold for you. I am so proud of all you have accomplished and the high standards you have shown through with.

Hey Kena,

Thank you. It is really fun learning more about other VAs. Even though the industry continues to grow we are able to form more personalized relationships by using this forum and Twitter, etc. I've enjoyed getting to know you and seeing your business grow too.

Hello Janet,

Thanks for your comments. It's not often we get to meet other VAs in person. It has been nice getting to know you. I am sure we will meet-up again in the future. I wish you continued success!

A wonderful interview, Tahneesha! I especially liked these parts:

Quote:
I felt I had stopped dreaming and started doing!
Quote:
I wish I would have really realized how much time and effort goes into marketing your business. It is an ongoing process.
I'm finding this out! A year ago, I scoffed at the suggestion of an hour a day. Not any more!

Quote:
One tip that keeps me ahead of the game on most days is waking before the family and this helps in the organization of my day. I am able to accomplish a lot while they are sleeping.
LOL! But it sounds like you have a wonderfully supportive husband.

It was so nice learning more about you!

Great Interview Tahneesha

I love being able to read about how people started their business and how they balance everything, as well as a bit of personal story about them. You sure have an extensive background.

Thank you for sharing.

Hi, Tahneesha. Your interview really resonated it with me. I loved it

My favorite parts were that you defined "success" as just "doing" it. That is so true for me. I set goals and then things come up and my dreams get pushed to the side. So, yeah, I will probably feel very successful the day I'm able to quit my job and start doing what I truly want to be doing.

Also, I'm a huge procrastinator as well and am trying to overcome it. I think there should be a support group for that...lol

Thanks for sharing,

Thank you for your transparency and passion for your work! It speaks volumes to your character. I pray you have much success & prosperity in all your endeavors!
PROCRASTINATION...now that little joy & purpose robber has showed up in my business & life far too many times. Thank you for letting me know that it is never too late to start again!
Gratefully, Terrinda

I enjoyed reading your interview and love the name of your VA Business! Hopefully, I am replying correctly. I've found some information in your interview that should help me along as a VA such as finding a mentor and finding a way to balance. I find it very difficult to find time for social networking. Thanks for sharing. Your interview has provided me with some things that I should look into such as a VA mentor.
