Individuals tend not to get the kind of firm and clear boundaries they need to learn about themselves. This leads to gossip and politics, often just below the surface of what looks like a happy and positive culture. This has serious ramifications for both the individuals on the team and the culture as a whole. The Fighter’s journey.

As I said earlier personal assistants tend to fall into the job and then don’t see the benefit of training or improving their skills. Why did you decide to write a blog? Well I’ve always loved writing.

This is doubly important for parents, as children learn by watching what parents do, not by listening to what parents tell them to do while doing something different themselves. Just like nail biting or gossip, whining is a bad habit - nothing more - and all bad habits can be broken. If you don’t… you both lose. So quit it.

As children, we learn about the world by making associations to remember words and shapes and names of things. We learn that not all apples are red and “no” certainly doesn’t have to mean disappointment. We learn that being sweet doesn’t always equate with generosity. It helps us make sense of our environment. I love people.

Be willing to learn a lot, wear a lot of hats, not complain, and follow their lead. It’s best not to gossip or form secret alliances. Also respect that they are also busy and may not be able to hold your hand past the initial training period. Learn to walk the fine line of having initiative but not stepping on anyone’s toes.

I had a big learning curve going into it and I didnt know any of the other assistants so I felt all alone with my challenges. The problem that sometimes occurs with sharing with current co-workers is it can turn into office gossip. Having the opportunity to hash it out with another assistant is a great resource.
