Do you have separation anxiety from your business?

Home / Blog / Do you have separation anxiety from your business?

Well, our new dog may have taught be something about myself this past weekend. I was solo with the new doggy, who by the way has MASSIVE separation anxiety. Well, being the type of person that likes my space, spending time with a dog no more than 5 feet from me at all times started to wear on me. What I did realize is that I might have separation anxiety from my business. It may not require medication :), but when I start to look at myself, I realize that in one form or another, I’m always thinking about my business. In the shower, I’m looking for inspiration to hit me. In the car, I’m listening to audio programs to help me promote, market, sell, or whatever I think I need in my business. When I head to sleep, I find myself stressed about how much money I’ve spent in the business, and wonder how long I can keep it running.
So what in your life gives you separation anxiety? do you have a small business, maybe it’s money, maybe it’s cars, politics, or how your sports team is doing. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. You really need to identify whatever it is in your life that you can’t seem to get away from. In my case, I need to make a conscious effort to remember one thing…

I have a business, but I am not my business.

In my case, I’m working so hard, that I need to make sure I don’t tie my self worth to the business.
I hope you don’t have the same issue I do… but if you do, remember, don’t let it run your life…
