it's become very popular to now post about all the wins all the victories all the scores but what about everything in between what about what I call entrepreneurs depression or even work depression or business depression something that I battle literally every single month I go through a death maybe even every two months I go through a serious dip where I have a week sometimes even two that are really really tough I go through this all the time if you're a perfect entrepreneur if you're a perfect business person then you don't need this stop watching but for the rest of us who are honest with ourselves I want to let you guys know how I personally deal with it and I want to give you guys some tools that I've use that have helped me get out of it to start building my business again and start becoming successful again and start winning again and here it goes number one is one run your own race when I compare myself to other people that's when I start getting depressed I'm not other people I have my own talents my own skills God has a unique plan just for me run your own race number two is be patient in the game I want things to happen more than anybody else I'm so incredibly impatient I literally want things to happen instantly but that's not how life works business is built one day at a time one brick at a time you can lay those bricks quickly but you still only have one day and every day you build a little bit towards that future so be patient with the game and just do your best in that day because that's all you have that's in your control number three be nice to yourself I don't know about you but I beat myself up when it comes to business I am my toughest critic I'm so hard on myself sometimes I have to be nice to myself and say you know what barrel you're a good guy or save yourself Stephanie you're a good girl you have done great things don't beat yourself up be nice to yourself number four is surround yourself with good people my wife is so supportive my brother is so supportive my my I have mentors that I call that are able to pick me up in those times that I feel down surround yourself with great people that I'm gonna pick you up when you're down five resell yourself on your purpose there's so many times that I just think that the music is gonna stop in my business I can't tell you how many times I've gone to my company and said wow we're a real company now and just to feel the next day that hey does anybody even like us does anybody who need what we do but we resell my I resell myself on my product on my process on my business and that helps me go back into the market with confidence but more importantly give my self confidence right up here next be clear on what it is where does it you want to go when we are you know just just aiming we're just going am list we have no direction we have no you know plan forward that is when I start to get anxiety it's important to sit back come back to the table and draw it out where does he want to go so that target is clear you cannot hit a target if you don't have one make targets for yourself eight don't be afraid to be vulnerable a lot of times as businesspeople I don't care if you're an entrepreneur or your sales person your CEO or CFO or even the secretary of a company it's very difficult to be vulnerable in the business arena everybody has to be perfect everybody has to be buttoned up and people are scared to share their vulnerabilities hey I'm vulnerable I'm a human being just like anybody else it's okay to share those vulnerabilities people go through hard times and that is okay next is enjoy time with your family there's nothing sweeter if anybody has kids you know what I'm talking about coming home and just playing with my kids it's the nicest feeling in the world even last night I went to go have a beer at my brother's house it was the best feeling in the world just kicking back and just enjoying time for times sake I don't know about you guys but I'm a little bit of a workaholic really like 99% of my focus and my energy is for business and it's nice to take out that time to just take for the family I know it sounds cheesy and corny and cliche but it is really something sweet and the last thing that I would like to communicate which is probably the most important of all is trust in God that is number one thing that gets me through everything because God has always provided I don't know about you but I never missed a meal in my life I always had three square meals a day no matter how good things were or how bad things were god always provided those meals for me and he's going to continue to provide for me and he's gonna continue to brought provide for you cast your burden on the one above and watch him take care of your problems I hope this brought you value god bless hey it's okay everybody has a tough day just pick yourself up and go forward have a good one
