A Toxic Workplace or One That Thrives?

Three of us were casually talking one morning, considering our workload, then putting it all in perspective on how we “used” to go hard all the time. Ultimately the word “burnout” and “depression” showed up. 

In some way, we were expressing the consequences of doing our best work. However this consequence came from not doing our best work. In the commitment to work hard and spending long hours at work, we found ourselves withering.  We suffered, if you will, from creative constipation. 

Do I need a Support Network?

I love the idea of an advisory group - I usually populate mine with friends I know who have experienced far more than I have in running their business as an entrepreneur. 

Simply, they are a group of individuals who provide advice and help my company succeed. I want to make it rather clear that I am not talking about a formal Board of Advisors. 

These advisors have skill sets in areas that fill a void within my company.
