Sales goals. Bills. Staffing issues. Government restrictions. Angry members. Competition that doesn't play by the rules.
There's no shortage of stressors for gym owners, and that will be true even after the COVID-19 pandemic. The key isn't to try to make it all go away—there is no one "next thing" that will make your life easy—but to learn to recognize and manage stressors in constructive ways.
Certified Two-Brain Mentor Colm O'Reilly has spent decades learning to manage his emotions and reframe them in healthy ways—ever since he survived attempted suicide as a young adult. Here, he shares tactics for getting through tough times and coming out better for it.
