Christmas Angels: Honoring Lost Loved Ones During The Holidays

December 23, 2019 LanaPummill 3 Comments

I have talked a lot lately about grief and the loss of my father. The holidays have been super tough this year. Honestly, I haven’t always felt like celebrating. However, I am a mom to two little ones and I have always been a Christmas fanatic, to say the least, so I feel like I…

It has been awhile…to say a lot is going on in my personal life would be an understatement. I’m currently going through a divorce and wadding the waters of being a new single mom. #singlemom #divorce #momlife #singlemomlife #lifeishard #momof4 #twinmom #virtualassistant #virtualassistantservices #workfromhome #lanapummill #blogger #dca #amyporterfield

I remember a time where I would slide into bed at night, tired but wide awake, feeling trapped, unsatisfied, guilty, wondering if I was a good mom and that I just didn't have enough time in the day. ⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I would cry in the shower or in my car because I didn't want my husband or kids to see me break. I knew there had to be more to life than this. I often wondered where did that woman go that knew what she wanted and went and got it? Where was the woman that oozed confidence in her walk, talk, words, and smile? I would catch glimpses of that woman in the mirror while brushing my teeth, somewhere behind the mom-bun, milk-stained stretched-out t-shirt, and 3-day old yoga pants. I would feel her nudging at me to let her out, as I stared out the window while driving to run the millionth errand of the week. ⁣
⁣⁣⁣
It doesn't have to stay that way, Mama. I can help you close the door on survival mode and start thriving. Together, we can find that woman again. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
You can have it all, Mama...and still rock those 3-day old yoga pants, while making money from your living room.⁣

Since I started this online biz a few years ago, I have learned a few things about time management. Today, I want to share with you my TOP two time management tips. ⁣
⁣
⁣⁣1. Make TIME. Don't find TIME. ⁣Want some hard truth? You are a business owner. There is no way that it can succeed if it is at the bottom of your priority list. Don't get me wrong. I am not saying that you should put it before your kids or spouse. However, you are going to have to make sacrifices, especially when you are first starting. Make the time. Make sacrifices. ⁣
⁣
⁣⁣2. Don't overdo it. Multi-tasking isn't always a good thing. ⁣If you continue to do multiple things with only 50% heart, you will spread yourself too thin, and your reputation and quality of work will suffer. So pick one thing and give it your all, then mark it off your list and keep going. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
What about you? Do you have any time management tips? I would love to read about them in the comments. ⁣⁣

“Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.” – Leo F. Buscaglia. ⁣⁣⁣

I used to worry about launching my course. I was so afraid that no one would buy it because what makes me an expert on building your own virtual assistant biz until I realized it was holding me back from succeeding. If I don't launch, I will never know. So my goal is to launch by the end of July. ⁣

Some of the best advice I have ever been given came from a client. ⁣
⁣
Recently, I had to take a few days off because my boys were sick. I felt so bad that I would be a couple of days late on a couple of her projects. However, her answer inspired me. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
"I wanted to remind you that your family always comes first, in my book. Remember this is why you work from home so you can be mommy first!! Always remember your WHY!" ♥♥♥⁣⁣⁣
⁣
So, today, I want to pass this advice onto you. No matter what you are doing. No matter where you are in your life. Remember why you started. Remember your why. ⁣⁣

“Done is better than perfect.” ⁣
⁣
⁣⁣Does this quote speak to you? ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
Honestly, I can see both sides of the argument with this. ⁣⁣I understand that you want your work to look like you put a lot of time, though, and effort into it. Sloppy work isn't going to attract the clients or customers you want. However, I also believe that if you get caught up in the idea of perfection, you might not ever leap. Plus, once you take the first step, everything from there is a chance to learn. ⁣⁣⁣

Want some tips on how to land your clients and stand out from other proposals? ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
1. Follow the instructions of the job description. I know this sounds simple, but the mistake of doing exactly the opposite of what they ask happens all the time. I see it in so many groups that I am in. If they say "no DMs" don't send them a DM. Hint. Hint. They aren't going to want to hire someone that can't follow simple directions. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
2. Send a personalized proposal. For example, spend a little bit of time researching the person, company, blog, site, etc... This will show them you care.⁣⁣⁣
⁣
3. Create a portfolio of all your recent work. This is especially important if you are doing graphic design or website design. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
4. Overdeliver. Be unforgettable. ⁣⁣
