Summary

“All depression and loneliness by definition is just 10x worse in business when you’re alone.” Entrepreneurs aren’t bulletproof in terms of their well-being. The rollercoaster of schedule, tasks, and various people you meet can take its toll on your mental health, and consequently, on your business. In this episode of The Disruptive Entrepreneur Podcast, Rob helps you on dealing with depression in business. First off, it’s important to consult a professional when you think you’re feeling there’s something wrong. The following are just different ways on how you can understand your mind and personality to avoid any mental illness from happening and to keep your business running. A high-performance company needs individuals with healthy mental well-being. Discover more when you tune in. KEY TAKEAWAYS It’s OKAY to ask for help; it’s okay to be vulnerable. It doesn’t mean that you’re weak and incapable. You’re just acknowledging that you’re human—you’re not a superhuman, a god, or an omnipotent body. We face challenges, struggles and failures, and each of us are only equipped with limited resources. Accept that you need others. Don’t self-medicate. Consult professional help. If you feel any imbalance in your body and mind, then don’t hesitate to approach someone. Be wary of what might have caused this. Maybe you’re overworking yourself or overthinking about stuff. Meeting and inspiring other people can instantly lift your spirits. Get around nature—when exposed to the beauty of it, all fears, stress, and doubts are removed. Exercise also to remove all the toxins and to release happy hormones. The challenges that come in your life should be a motivation for you to better yourself and to conquer each day. It’s unpredictable when and how they come in your life. Never doubt yourself that you’ll never get past them—you need them to learn and to grow. BEST MOMENTS “You’re not alone even if you feel you are.” “Talking with other people is cathartic.” “When you let things bottle up, you become subservient or slightly weak.” “Don’t deny what you’re feeling; allow to feel what you’re feeling.” “Having critics is great because it prepares you for your higher level of your business.” [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
