Hi All:

I am a SAHM of 4 and am starting a Virtual Assistant company.

I want to know what your keys to your success are. In short, what makes you successful. How do you obtain your goals? Do you take baby steps or dive in head first? I have read what the "experts" say but I want to hear from moms/women like me.

Thanks; :D

It's simple...

1.) Be coachable

2.) NEVER Give Up!

Love your brief answer because it is so true.....esp. the "never give up".

Treat yourself like "YOU, Inc." - create a plan, a vision, follow a system, dream big!

"No matter where you are in life right now, no matter who you are, no matter how old you are - it is never too late to be who you are meant to be. Unless you choose to take action on what you want, nothing is ever going to come out of it." Esther & Jerry Hicks

It ultimately comes down to YOU and what YOU want to do for yourself. Set your passions and dreams as your next destination, and go after them relentlessly. There is no reason for you to have to settle for anything less.

Take action!
Make mistakes!

For me, it was BE COACHABLE. My business has a tonne of training offered, and I think I really had to be ready, look at the training seriously, and be brave enough to follow through with the steps.

It's also my businesses system. It's a proven, workable system, and I had to remember NOT to try to go my own way with it, but to follow the system. So much easier, and I've seen the results way faster.

Well, I always think of the final goal, and move towards it making short steps and analysing the result of each

Thanks so much! I am learning to be patient. I can do it, I can do it, I must do it!:p

To make your obstacles become your stepping stones!

Pray or read a bible verse in the morning before you start your day and believe in yourself.

The best thing for me was to use Mark Joyners Simpleology 101 - it's free but very effective in helping you to set clear goals and focus on them.

Apart from that, you just need to remember to make each action count - don't get caught up in surfing for surfing's sake - I wasted so much time procrastinating in the beginning.

JUST DO IT ;D

just keep on doing your best and believe that someday you'll make it!!!

You have to believe in yourself first and foremost. Strong will and determination to succeed, patience and positive thinking makes every dream possible.

Strong deal of Patience is a must in an online business because it's hard and very challenging to manage a virtual employees not to mention if they are from different time zones.

This is very true. Online based companies won't work if the head/manager is not patient enough. I should know.
