Why Your Mental Health Matters!

In this episode of the Airbnb Blueprint Podcast, Alex & Pooh talk about an issue that afflicts a lot of Airbnb entrepreneurs, including them – burnout. They share their own experience with this problem and how ignoring this danger can lead to life changing mental health issues, that are very difficult to recover from. THE AIRBNB BLUEPRINT CONSULTANT - CONTACT US https://welcome.airbnbblueprint.co.uk  KEY TAKEAWAYS You need to recognise when you are under pressure and need support. Learn to recognise There are many different types of pressure that can make running your business feel difficult. Having a family puts a lot of demands on your time so you have to be organised. Not having a family means fewer time constraint issues but makes it easier to be ill- disciplined and not work productively. You are not a machine. Nobody works well if they sit down and work for hours on end. Everyone needs to relax Being structured and focused is the best way to take the pressure off. Truly value your work time. If it does not benefit your business, don´t do it. Exercise is a crucial component of success. It enables you to switch off completely. Get away from your screens. Everyone needs a block of time away from their electronics. BEST MOMENTS "I still struggle with it (burnout) on a daily basis.” “Pooh struggles with it as well, he´s got so many plates spinning.” “I didn’t see the signs coming from her, the signs of depression. It reached the point where it got too far, and I could not recognize my wife. She was a completely different person.” “Make sure you're finding time for something outside of all of the noise and all of the work and stress something so that you can just turn off for a short period of time.” “If you want to be successful in business, exercise is a must, otherwise you can't keep your mental capacity up.” “Take that time to switch everything off.” LINKS FREE Airbnb Blueprint Coaching Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/2342454789487705 HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To- Lets collectively over the last 5 years.  This AirBnB Business has allowed each of them to create their own tailor-made ‘lifestyle by design.’ Pooh chose to escape the corporate life as an electrical engineer instead to spend his time at home with his young and growing family, and Alex likes to spend most of his time in sunny Spain enjoying his love for road cycling or even hiking in the Tramuntana mountain ranges.
