How do you deal with entrepreneurial loneliness?

Here are some of the tips that are working for me: **Take time to write down tasks** I find it useful to sit down at the beginning of the week and plan my days. This allows me to focus on the efficient tasks that actually bring me closer to my goals. **Go work in coffee places** It helps me to leave my house and actually be surrounded by other people. **Surround yourself with other entrepreneurs** Only other entrepreneurs will really understand what you are going through. A few months ago I started a virtual coworking space for bootstrappers and we are not more than 30 people working together on our own projects.

I am first hand dealing with all of it that you mentioned in the description. But here are a few things that are helping me deal with it. 1. Surround yourself with other entrepreneurs. Meet them once in a while. 2. Surround yourself with people who have no connection with your work and professional life. They remind you that there's more to life than anything that is bothering you. 3. Travel a little, once in a while. New experiences unlock new thoughts. 4. Stay in touch with your family. Visit them frequently. 5. Stay in touch with your friends. Calls, texts, parties. 6. Scheduling one-on-one calls with new people (once in a while). Lunchclub.ai is a good place to start. 7. Remember that you are more than your work, you are more than your bank balance, you are more than all your highs and lows. Hope this helps you too :) Pro-tip: Play your favorite music and sing along. Follow your hobbies as well. For me, gardening, playing guitar, cooking, working out, helps.

I think the whole point is to get out of the house as soon as possible and take breaks otherwise you can quickly feel very lonely and misunderstood. Find acquaintances for lunch break and eat in the city for example, go to work in coworking spaces... and especially in the evening/weekend go out doing activities to see people, go out for a drink with friends. It looks like a boat but it feels good!

Interesting question. What has helped me in the past: -Have a support system (friends or family that believe your abilities and your project) -Connect with like minded entrepreneurs, nobody will understand what you are going through better

Invest time into connecting with like-minded people. It's not easy, but having people to listen to your rants and frustrations is gold.

The best Ways for me: Mentors, Team, Training

Thanks for sharing this questions as it helps others realize we all deal with these issues. Some things that have helped me is to realize that there are 100 things we can be doing, but we can only do ONE at a time. *Having a list of the task, how likely is it for this task to impact my business, and how hard it is to complete. then tackling the ones that will yield the most results and easiest to do will be a good place to start. I have learned that the more accomplished I feel, the less lonely I am. *I don't like to talk to family and friends about what I am doing, except for one friend who is also an entrepreneur, and having her to share, vent, and whine to has been extremely helpful. Being there for her too is rewarding and gives that sense of doing for others. * Take time off to enjoy with loved ones. Most important one for me. I used to feel guilty for doing that because it's time I could be spending on my work. But, taking time off to enjoy my family's company has been a game changer for me.

I'd always do consulting work, working with clients etc while building the product as it gives you A) more or less stable income and B) less loneliness. - consulting gigs in any area are easy to find too. Hope this helps.
