From Executive Administrative Assistant to Entrepreneur: My Journey

You might not know this about me, but I began my career as an Executive Administrative Assistant. Back then, my days were filled with managing calendars, coordinating meetings, and ensuring smooth office operations. Fast forward to today, and I’m the proud owner of a training company specializing in productivity technology, including Microsoft 365.

The role of administrative professionals has evolved tremendously over the years. From gatekeepers to strategic partners, you all play a crucial role in keeping organizations running smoothly. So, to my fellow administrative professionals, I applaud your dedication, adaptability, and unwavering commitment.

Are you new to Microsoft Copilot? Do you need to learn how to use it? It will definitely increase your productivity.

It’s integrated for free in Microsoft windows and it is a paid add-on in Microsoft 365 for Personal and Business subscriptions.

You will need to know how to write Copilot prompts for effective use. If this is all new to you, then the class I’m teaching online on March 19 will cut your learning curve.

When you click on the link for the class, it will give you an opportunity to read what I’m teaching before you commit to registering. This will help you to determine whether or not this class is right for you.

During this class I will also be covering the Copilot app that was recently released. I use it almost every day.

Ways to prevent procrastination. This is a perfect for you and that’s why I’ve chosen it.

Keep tasks in perspective:
“I can get through this.”

Focus on your “why”:
Visualize the long-term benefits of completing tasks.

Know yourself: Reflect on what triggers your procrastination.

Practice effective time management:
Break down tasks and prioritize.

Change your perspective:
Embrace tasks as opportunities for growth.

Create a productive environment:
Find a focused workspace.

One of the things that contributes to procrastinating is the feeling of overwhelm from the number of task you have to complete. It’s possible that some of those task could be taken on by an AI helper, like the Copilot app.

The Copilot app is free for download and it is a productivity app. I encourage you to download it and try it out.

Happy Monday.
