Seth Buechley
Seth Buechley is a successful entrepreneur and author that’s dedicated his work to helping others become better leaders. He connects potential leaders with the people they need to grow their business and their leadership.
“Being determined is a prerequisite to being an entrepreneur, but there are also things that we have to be aware of in the downside.” – Seth Buechley
Journey as Entrepreneur
Seth got into entrepreneurship at a young age. In his late 20s, he was already a member of a board of public companies. To him, it was a nice season of growth and was a great opportunity to build something meaningful.
“Gratitude to ambitious people – take time to do a detailed accounting of what gifts you’ve been given.” – Seth Buechley
He made a lot of investments and started a couple of businesses himself. One of which became a national business in the US.
A Book on Ambition
From his experiences, Seth saw how a lot of talented, ambitious individuals struggle with the sense of contentment and satisfaction. That inspired him to write his book Ambition: Leading with Gratitude.
“When a leader self-destructs, we don’t do that in a vacuum. We impact these ripples all around us.” – Seth Buechley
He wrote it to study ambition. He saw two major influences that make a person ambitious. One is because a person was born that way, and the other is because of external influences.
What Happens to People with Drive
According to Seth, there are two things that can happen to driven people. One is they achieve their goals only to realize that it didn’t satisfy them the way that they thought it would.
“Having a group of people that have respect for you and weigh in on your opportunities helps tremendously.” – Seth Buechley
They also set their goals so high that they fail to reach it in the end. As a result, they become disappointed and lack the tools and training to deal with it. He further discusses the implications of ambition.

About Jaime Jay
Meet Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's a master connector, an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and a published author who knows how to get things done.
Before he found his way to the business world, Jaime served his country as a brave paratrooper in the U.S. Army. But that's just the beginning of his many accomplishments.
He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for entrepreneurs everywhere.
When he's not busy building his empire, you can find him on his beloved Harley Davidson, cruising through the countryside and taking in the invigorating effects of Uitwaaien – a Dutch practice that involves facing the wind to boost health and relieve stress.
He enjoys spending his free time outside building stuff with his wife, Nikita the dog and their two kittens (for now at least) Tommy and Tater.
He is ‘over-the-moon’ happily married to his wonderful wife Sara, his amazing daughter, Jessica, who is serving our country as a United States Army soldier. Jaime and Sara are the proud grand parents of two beautiful little girls.

Their team has played a vital role in helping us staff our customer support and ensuring our customers were satisfied with our services. Their Distant Assistants were extremely helpful in answering inquiries promptly, handling complaints, and providing solutions to our customers' needs.

Jeff Peñaflor2022-09-14I started last March 24, 2021 as a Dedicated Distant Assistant and it was an awesome experience. In this new journey, as Security Administrator of Bottleneck Distant Assistants, I have been supported by the team, A LOT !!!! All help that I need, the whole team is there to support me.

With BNDA, they will not just help you to aim high, but soar the skies!

Sara Knox2022-09-07What an awesome business! Finally, a way to hire the RIGHT person for my administrative tasks and they are remote! No office space to consider, W2's, 1099's or payroll. Jaime and his team of remote workers are top-notch! I hired my first assistant in May. I recently suffered a motorcycle accident and it left me unable to work for 2 weeks. But my assistant stepped right in to guide our CEO on all matters financial. It’s so nice to have that stress eliminated from my life!
