Why I’m A Virtual Legal Assistant
I just read a great post at Seth Godin’s blog about NOT following the money. What you say, does that mean? Well Seth was talking about how not everything is about money, that we all do things and make choices based on a bigger picture – the picture that is our whole life, not just our financial package.
I liked that because it certainly is true in my life. I’m not making my career choices based on how rich I think I can get (I don’t think it will happen!), but rather on what I think I will both enjoy and will give me an opportunity to be helpful and hopefully give me some challenging things to do. I don’t think being a virtual legal assistant is an easy choice, in fact I think it may be quite difficult to get well-established, to prove the value of providing assistant services from my home-office to lawyers across Canada and the United States, to keep finding things to blog about even!
But I’m doing something I know is the right choice for me and that is a great feeling, no matter how little it adds to my bank account!

Hey Laurie – I agree. Money isn’t everything. You still have to live with yourself and if you don’t have that sense of accomplishing anything with your life, it becomes quite empty.
