The BURNout of an Entrepreneur

You want it, you crave it, your soul demands it… then you crash. Have you been there? You continue to push and push until your body submits.

Most people want something until they discover all the details that go into turning that endeavor into fruition.

An entrepreneur’s journey is not for the fainted heart. You have to be mentally prepared to go weeks and sometimes months without a penny coming in- especially in the early stages.

You become the jack of all trades simply to give your business oxygen. Those first couple of months go by and the deals that appeared promising, fell through. The stress stealthily weighs down your mind while taking a stab at your confidence.

Everyday is a new day where we have to trick our minds into believing we have what it takes to make this fucking happen.

We are going to feel like shit in certain phases. Our bodies will cave past the point of exhaustion. Yet, we know deep in our core that this is a winnable fight.

You and I, my friend, are the chosen ones.

Because we have the GRIT, resilience, and perseverance to overcome the burnout and reconnect ourselves with a higher vision as to why we’re doing this.

It’s not a question of if or when. WE WILL BURNout- and at that point is our chance to fan a new flame.

To the entrepreneur…

I respect you. I commend you. I thank you. I love you.
