Having business skills is great but what do you love doing? Or what are you good at? What could you do without getting bored with it after a period of time, or throwing in the towel because it's gotten tough?

I've had to learn business skills but what I started with were excellent admin and organisation skills, along with a love of typing - I still love typing. I've learnt and developed other skills along the years but I started with a homebased secretarial service that later became a virtual assistant practice once the internet set in (I started before the Internet was here in Australia).

Once you've worked out what it is that lights you up, then that will give you a clue as to what directions you could be looking in.
