261 – Anxiety, Motivation, and Building a Business

“Worry is worshiping the problem.” We’re not sure who said it first, but we thought it was well worth sharing and discussing. 

This week, we share our personal experiences with anxiety and how we deal with it. We also discuss the pros and cons of motivation and it plays into building a business, diving into the modern day misconception that building a business can be done with minimal hours and work-life balance. Finally, we debate whether remote work is more beneficial or harmful for businesses and employees.

Takeaways:

  • How to identify the root of your anxiety and methods for handling it better
  • Motivation can come from external sources, but inspiration needs to come from within
  • Building a business requires dedication, hard work, and long hours
  • Remote work may lead to a loss of productivity and the absence of valuable mentorship opportunities
