Last Tuesday was my birthday and guess what I got as a present? I got me a personal assistant..:D. Well she hasn't officially started but I interviewed two people that morning and decided to hire one of them. Now she needs to take care of resignation process first, I'm crossing finger that it's gonna be smooth.
I've been contemplating of getting a PA since a year ago but I've never been so sure about it. I mean do I really really need one? I started to think about it more seriously when Oki, out of the blue, suggested me to get a PA to help with some of the things I need to handle everyday. And I thought quietly that..yes maybe it's time. Afterall, my to-do list is growing that it's hard to keep up with each one of them. There's always a new challenge everyday and everyone is screaming for attention. Time with the kids is getting short and it seems that my life is always in auto pilot mode. It's time to get my priority in order.
So yes, hopefully I'll get some of the workload off my back soon. Maybe not office work but at least she can help reply and sort some of the emails, answer calls, help me with my schedule & administration, arranging reservation, takes care of the bills and other financial stuff and even manage household & kids related things. I've just launched spice with my sister so a PA would help a lot in that area too. Most women are multirole and I'm no exception. I'm often asked to do many things by my mom and extended family so yes my plate is full and I need to delegate some of the work pronto.
