Re: Teaching Kids to Cook without Being a Control Freak

Oooh, I'll have to tell him that quote tonight when he cooks us dinner! But usually he gets me to clean up by telling me "I cooked, so you could clean up because that's only fair." lol I guess I kind of agree with him but man he makes a mess like no other I've ever seen in a kitchen!

Great post. My problem isn't taking over when my 14 year old cooks (because sadly he knows how to cook better than I do!), it's the HUUUUGE mess he makes. And his response is always "mom, a good cook always makes a mess." LOL

Wonderful video. So glad you mentioned the tabs - this is something I've ignored on my business page and I recently decided I needed to learn how to set them up. I'll definitely be going to your FB page to look for the video on how to do it :-)

Re: This Week I Learned That Pink Hair is Powerful

Kelly, you are a bad ass ;-) Kidding aside, I absolutely love what you are doing. For me personally I'm crazy enough to try a lot of things with my hair but I could never do what you're doing. I have wanted pink stripes in my hair for quite awhile but I'm too chicken to dye all of my hair pink.

Hmmm....pink hair attracting the opposite sex....well I guess I better go buy some pink and dye my hair now ;-)

Re: You Can Count On Life To Deliver Attitude Adjustments

Glad to hear Gabe didn't have to do the 7 day hospital stay. I think we all need an "attitude" adjustment once in awhile ;-) Your post just reminds me why I want to build passive income streams instead of soley relying on client work.

Love this post Kelly. While I've come a loooong way since my beginning days I still have a looooong ways to go :-) When I 'grow up' I wanna be like you :-)

Re: Could I Be A Vagabond?

Tishia Lee — Fri, 06 May 2011 21:09:04 -0000

I think you should do it so I can come along on some trips :-) LOL (of course that's me just being selfish and thinking how fun it would be for you to live in the RV so I could tag along)

Re: If You Know Who You Are

Tishia Lee — Fri, 06 May 2011 21:06:57 -0000

Wow....this was major confirmation that I have NO idea who I am! I'm not sure whether to say thank you for posting this or not. lol I've always known that I didn't really know me but yeah this just verified that!

Re: Spring Fever: Resistance is Futile

Tishia Lee — Wed, 04 May 2011 21:35:43 -0000

I definitely have workaholic tendencies too! There are some days that I can sit at this computer for 12-13 hours and not even realize it. My son is 12 so it's easier for me to fall into the trap of always being on the computer because he entertains himself and doesn't need my constant supervision.

The problem with me always working (ok not always working because I do have a habit of being on the computer goofing off too! lol) is that I tend to get really run down because I pull a lot of late nights (I have sleep issues too) and eventually it catches up with me in the form of sickness.

Last week I was literally forced to slow down. I was stopped in my tracks due to sickness and was on bed rest the entire week. I really thought about a lot of things last week and realized that God doesn't intend for me to always be running my body down. He made a day of rest for a reason and I need to learn to allow myself that down time.

Ok so I know my rambling didn't really have anything to do with spring fever...sorry. lol

Re: Are Some People Just Slow Bloomers?

Tishia Lee — Thu, 16 Sep 2010 16:13:04 -0000

Awesome post Kelly! I've been a VA for almost 5 years now and I'm just starting to bloom. I've still got a long way to go to fully bloom but I'm getting there. I've come so far!

Love the pics you shared :-) Soon I'll be talking about skiing and winter activities and you'll be talking about summer activities! I'm always so fascinated by the fact that you're 'down under' and so many hours ahead of us and a season ahead of us too.

Enjoy your down time Kelly with Sean and his girlfriend! I'll see you Sunday :-)

Re: Mojo, Oh Dear Mojo, Where Are You?

Tishia Lee — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 10:15:46 -0000

You've been given some great advice (activity, rest, etc) so I don't really have anything else to offer other than I know what it's like to not have any Mojo. I think it's normal that we all go through times like these once in awhile. Hang in there!

Re: So Happy Just Being Me

Tishia Lee — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 10:12:31 -0000

Oh what an awesome post Kelly! I've spent a long time always trying to be someone else - someone that everyone else (parents, family & even friends sometimes) wanted me to be. I learned at a very young age the real me wasn't good enough, at least from some of my families perspective. That definitely carried over into my adulthood and that carried over to my online presence/business for quite awhile. The first couple years as a VA were rough - I was consumed with comparing myself to other VAs out there, feeling hurt after criticism (even if it was constructive!), trying to act a certain way around this person or that person...it was tiring! Finally I realized it was time to start living authentically and if people didn't like me for who I was too bad. It's been 4 years and 7 months as a VA and I finally don't pay attention to what other VAs are doing (well ok I do pay attention but I don't compare myself to them) and can finally accept feedback/criticism without it ruining my day and stressing over it. When you learn to accept who you are and let that shine through so many things just fall into place!

Tishia Lee — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:51:02 -0000

Ok I know I'm really late in joining in but I'm in. I have to admit this is definitely going to be a challenge that takes me outside of my comfort level and...well STRETCHES me! There's lots of things to do here but what 'scares' me the most is all the writing I'll be doing! lol

It was a great time & Kelly you deserve that award :-)

Re: Biggest Loser Auditions

Tishia Lee — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 18:06:24 -0000

I'm giggling because those were a great 10 reasons except for the pretending to like Subway turkey meat (I really do like it! lol). I used to think I'd lose so much weight if I could just get on The Biggest Loser but I've come to learn that we don't NEED the ranch to achieve our goals.

Re: Two Steps to Help you Stay Focused as a WAHM

Tishia Lee — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 09:44:55 -0000

I've pretty much given up on the whole schedule thing. I've tried and tried and tried some more over the last 4 years to make a schedule & stick to it to no avail. I tend to be more of a night owl and that's often when I find I'm most productive!

However, I do still have my Monday through Friday business hours set on my blog but very rarely do I work those hours (of course the business hours are for the sole purpose of letting prospective clients & current clients know that I don't work on the weekends and here's the hours I do work...as long as I'm meeting my deadlines they don't need to know I'm not working during those business hours if I don't feel like working then).

I've got my priorities set for not only the week but each day this week. Yeah me :-)

Re: The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Twitter Success: E-Book

Tishia Lee — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 21:32:14 -0000

I just downloaded my copy. Can't wait until I have some free time so I can dive into it. I've been on Twitter for quite awhile now but I've always used it for personal reasons so I'm having a hard time switching gears and using it for business/marketing purposes. Hope to find some great information in your guide!

Re: What Do You Do With Your Notes From Conferences?

Tishia Lee — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 13:37:25 -0000

Oh great video Kelly! I didn't have time to even think about looking back through my notes until just recently. It was actually a bit overwhelming to look at my notes because I had so much information wrote down. There was some stuff that I had scribbled out and then some stuff that I tried adding notes to so there were notes all over the side margins, top margins, etc. It was a mess. So I shut my notebook and figured I'd never get any use out of them but after watching your video and hearing your idea of going back through to circle things that still stood out, etc I'm going to do that as well. I know there's lot of valuable information I wrote down and I don't want to just miss those little gold nuggets after all I wrote them down for a reason!
