Donald Burns says loneliness often comes from building a fortress around yourself. A restaurant owner thought no one understood them, but the real problem was handling every decision and crisis alone instead of letting others in.
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 the cycle. DM me. The word goes.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
