A short motivational/leadership clip by Donald Burns arguing that feelings of loneliness often come from self-imposed isolation rather than others (staff or family). Uses a restaurant-owner anecdote to illustrate building a ‘fortress’ of carrying all decisions and crises alone, and closes with a personal offer to help (DM).
Here's the real reason you feel so alone. It's not your staff or your family. It's you isolating yourself. I worked with a restaurant owner who constantly said, no one understands me. You know, my staff doesn't care. My family doesn't get it. I feel completely alone. Sound familiar? The problem wasn't their staff or their family. It was them. They had built a fortress around themselves, taking on everything, every decision, every crisis, every shift that went wrong. Now I'm the one person who can help you break out of this cycle. DM me. The word goes.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
