“The beauty of using a virtual assistant is that you can design it in a way that works for you.” -Cecil Cummins, Vice President at Hyatt Commercial

Cecil found himself slowly getting bogged down by busy work and non-dollar-generating tasks. For example, one night he realized he was doing some forensic accounting at 11 PM and wondered… why? Cecil and MyOutDesk agree on a very specific notion; time is our most valuable asset, so we’ll never get to where we want to be if we keep wasting it. So Cecil, being the open-minded and successful leader that he is, began looking for cost-effective help. He asked himself, “What am I not doing but that I want to do, and just can’t justify taking time from other activities to make happen?”. This train of thought led him to try outsourcing some tasks to virtual assistants from other companies. The results weren’t quite up to par for Cecil and Hyatt, so he kept browsing other options.

How To Prepare For An Infinite Game of Business

@psychometal @followersofpsychometal @psychosmoker
=========== Lyrics ===========
take me somewhere i think i really need to get away
maybe to a place that could be better than it is today
everything is different now i'm feeling like i'm real depressed
i got a heavy burden digging deep down inside  my chest
there will be no rest for  the servants of satan
put me in line to receive some medication
it took a lot of time but i never got a answer
going down this road i think its leading to disaster
---------------------
i will not beg
for your forgiveness


tell me whats right
but i wont listen

feeling so bad
this is your life

take me away
cause this is not right
--------------------------------------------

i will not budge from my position
you put me in a place to face all the opposition
is this the direction that you really wanted to go
so many things that you'll never even get to know
feeling like a stranger inside of my own body
one evil eye projecting like the illuminati
preaching like a crooked pastor way to hell is coming faster
tell me what i want to hear i think i'm facing all my fears
--------------------------------------------------

i will not beg
for your forgiveness

tell me whats right
but i wont listen

feeling so bad
this is your life

take me away
cause this is not right
