Imagine, if we had assistants at home to pay the bills, do the budget, organize dinners, answer our calls and follow up with reminders -- it is starting to sound pretty good. That is a good time to recognize assistants for all that they do. I hope all of your professionals appreciate what a privilege it is to have someone look after them.

If you turn white and get all knee-wobbly at the thought of picking up the phone and introducing yourself to a prospective client, keep your day job.
