There are a lot of misconceptions when it comes to working from home.

Away from the glamour and prestige of a corporate job, or away from the busyness of an in-the-office and in-the-field kind of job, working from home is far different from what one can usually expect.

Sometimes, we tend to think that working from home is a little easier than doing corporate or in-the-field jobs, but this is further from the truth.

Working from home provides us benefits like no everyday fare, more time with the family, fewer food expenses as we can meal prep and get more sleep.

Meanwhile, working from home also gives us some restrictions that a typical job would not. These samples are lesser in-person social life, lesser exercise from the daily commute, stricter guidelines that come from the work-from-home settings, and so much more.

For one, being a Virtual Assistant (VA) (VA) provides us so many benefits. Things such as natural and deep growth as an individual and professional are some of its positive contributions to us. Plus, it is a great deal of training for high-level professionalism. It’s also a great experience working for International clients, like companies from the United States and Canada.

Indeed, being a VA is more complicated than it seems. VAs have to learn to do things entirely independently and operate from different settings and cultures. Yet it is very much rewarding and so worth the experience!
