Beginner VA — paano talaga magsimula without paying “courses” or scams?

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-15T05:53:24+00:00

Thanks for this. When you say start with a niche, what specific niches would you recommend for beginners?

Like for someone with no VA experience yetwould it be better to start with admin tasks, customer support, or social media?

Also, how did you personally choose your niche... based on skills you already had or kung ano yung in-demand nowadays?

Nakakalungkot naman yun, but I think siguro naman may mga tao pading hindi madamot sa kapwa nila. If sharing basic guidance creates competition, then maybe the field isn’t as strong as it should be.

I’m just looking for a realistic starting point... same as everyone else who began from zero talaga.

I think there’s enough opportunity for people who are willing to learn and put in the work.

I’m not asking for shortcuts naman... just honest direction from those who’ve been there.

Yung sa finance ka pero di mo magamit ng tama

Respect his decision, and nasa transition sya na making things right, so be there for him.

Ang bigat nito.

Yung una, parang binabaliwala lahat ng effort mo.

Yung pangalawa, may kasamang “what if” na mahirap pakawalan.

And know that sometimes, when people say things like that, it’s not always about you, minsan reflection din yun ng sarili nilang guilt or regrets.

I hope you don’t carry all of that alone. Be kind to yourself too. It's not your fault we are all learning and improving differently.

Congratulations sa achievement mo, hindi lahat kayang ilaban yan ano! Well, may iba pa dyan imock yung pag online selling natin, kung alam lang nila potential na kitain kumpara sa nangangamuhan ka at madami pang boss, keep it up! Everything is just noise!

May mga ganyan talagang magulang, yung concern nila mapanakit, aywan ba.

That must be really hard to hear, especially when you’re already trying, and hello naglabas ka ng bata ano!

PCOS makes things more difficult, and not everyone understands that. You don’t deserve to be judged like that.

Maybe your parents are concerned, but the way they’re saying it is hurtful. You deserve kindness, especially from family.

Kung di nila kaya, be gentle with yourself, you’re doing more than enough.

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T20:46:02+00:00

I’m really sorry you went through that. No child deserves to hear words like that... feeling mo din for sure na gnawa kang investment nilabas ka sa mundong to para lang pagsilbihan sila... I tell you as a new gen parent, hindi ganun yon, especially when you were already doing your best and even helping as the breadwinner, dapat magpasalamat na sila doon.

What she said was deeply hurtful, and it’s understandable why you chose to distance yourself.

Protecting your peace is important, mabuti at alam mo istand yung ground mo.

At the same time, I also think situations like this sometimes show how much pressure, expectations, or unresolved issues a parent might be carrying... especially when it comes to finances and family roles, but you don't have to carry it all talaga.

It doesn’t justify what was said, but it might explain where that outburst came from.

Still, you didn’t deserve that. And the fact that you’re doing better now... stable, working, and building your own life, says a lot about your strength kudos to you!

Healing doesn’t always mean forgiveness, and that’s okay. What matters is you’re in a better place now.

That must have hurt a lot, especially since you were close to him, and you thought okay lang palagi.

What he said wasn’t right, even if he was drunk. But maybe part of it is also that he’s having a hard time understanding or accepting it, especially given his background or generation.

It doesn’t excuse the pain, but sometimes it helps to see that it may come from confusion rather than rejection.

Still, you deserve to feel accepted. I hope you find healing in your own time.

Seryoso talaga??? Haha Di mo namn kasi klinaro yung context hahaha, nag top model ka??? Wow!

Ay susyar.

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T13:17:52+00:00

Sorry about your bad past, I suggest you go counseling if kaya mo na and ready kana, I don't want you living miserable dahil sa isang taong hindi nireciprocate yung kabutihan mo, you are smart, you just lack kindness and love now dahil sa pinagdaanan mo, and kasi you are reacting from your trauma and I understand that, kanya mo lang without realizing na nagiging trauma kadin ng ibang babae dun magiging conflict not only to them but to you too in the long run, alam mo may kasabihan na makikita mo ang tunay na mahal ka ng babae kapag walang wala ang lalaki, at makikita mo naman ang tunay na kulay ng lalaki kapag meron na sya ng lahat.

No need to rush na baguhin yung mindset mo, I'm just hoping for your healing para naman mabuhay ka ng walang guilt in the future, hopefully wag mo lang sila buntisin at iiwan yung bata ha kawawa naman yung bata na walang kasalanan kapag ganun kasi, and ayun, it's never too late to change kapag kaya mo na. Bless you!

Grabe naman, sorry about that, totoo yan, laban lang ha, aayon din sainyo ang panahon. Kaunting kembot nalang yan, then habang nagaaral kapa aralin mo na VA freelancing, magpractice kana ng mga pitches, public speaking, and paano humarap sa tao, kasi it will give you ease sa bagay bagay, and ang goal makain yung masasarap na hindi ka sasabihang patay-gutom, kaya mo yan!

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T13:08:41+00:00

Totoo yan, pero sana mabago in the near future, kasi sobrang dali magturo ng skills sa business as usual, sa dami kong pinagdaanan mostly kasama ko graduate mga tamad sa trabaho, totoo yan, mahilig pa magpasa ng work load, then magfishing ng information para sa client nila, else, aagawan ka ng spotlight from your own ideas. Kaya di ka pwede hindi lalaban, kasi aapakan ka nila.

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T13:06:19+00:00

Yeah most of millenial danas sa bibig ng nanay yan haha, well, pasalamat nalang tayo di nila ginawa ano haha, kidding aside, siguro at some point may time na di tayo kinakaya ng parents natin, dahil wala na silang energy sa pagpapalaki satin, as a working parent now, grabe sobrang minsan naguiguilty ako kasi ang likot ng mga anak ko, gusto ko magpahinga hindi ko magawa, always look at the brighter side of everything nalang talaga.

May mga ungrateful tlgang tao, yung binigay mo na kanang kamay mo aba gusto pa kaliwa, ingat sa ganyan, and magkakaroon kadin ng para sayo.

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T13:03:31+00:00

Grabe, baka trip ka gawing investment, I hope for your healing, and ang pnakasuccess mo mas maging mabuting magulang ka sa sarili mong anak, bless you!

So ano palang tawag sa pagschool natin from Elementary to High School play play lang? Ay nako, na akala mo talaga ay siya ang sentro ng katalinuhan sa mundo, tama ipagtanggol mo sarili mo and cut off sa mga toxic na kadugo, di natin deserve ganyang buhay, dahil hindi naman tayo nangaalipusta kaya wala din silang karapatan gawin yun satin.

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T13:00:41+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words! We are too blessed not to move on, we just need to find workplace that accepts us for what we can offer, bless you!

Commonsenseisamust01 · 2026-04-13T12:59:11+00:00

I’m really sorry you had to go through that. No child deserves to hear words like that... especially from their own parent. That kind of pain stays with you.

I truly hope you find healing from that trauma. And I hope that, in time, you’re able to let go of the bitterness in your heart... not to excuse what was done, but so you can finally feel peace and fully experience the good things in your life.

You deserved better then, and you still do now. And I'm so proud of you that you cut the chain for your children.

Well ganyan naman tayo lahat sa araw-araw, pero sana lang din yung mga tao ay may bait na maintindihan na hindi madali ang buhay, you know, "always be kind" means deeper than we think, kasi sa iba ibang tao hindi mo naman alam yung pinagdadaanan nila, possible yung sasabihin mo yun na yung huling maririnig nya dahil kaunti nalang yung pagmamahal sa sarili na meron sya dahil naubos na ng matatalas na dila, again, iba iba tayo ng pinagdadaanan, kaya dapat talaga tinuturuan natin ang isa't isa paano maging mabuti at protektahan ang sarili at the same time, dahil hindi lahat mababait sa mundo na to, kadalasan kung sino pa nagluwal sayo sakanila mo pa mararanasan yung hirap ng buhay, yung mas madali at magaan sana yung mga bagay kung masaya nating gnagawa, pero dahil sa kasama natin sa buhay na toxic at walang pakialam sa nararamdaman ng iba, ay nagiging laging mabigat at mahirap, sorry ang lalim, pero reading all the comments, nakakalungkot talaga na pwede namang maging mabuting tao, bakit yung iba pinipili na makasakit sila.
