After reflecting on events of the last year and attending a brilliant Men’s Health Session recently, I asked myself this question: “ Do we put too much pressure on ourselves? “During the last year, I have, at times, felt under pressure not from anyone else but purely due to my demands. Trying to build a new business while dealing with all the other aspects of a busy family life can sometimes feel overwhelming. As I look back towards the start of the year, my partner had an operation which led to some unseen side effects; my day job at Tata was high pressure due to major restructuring and redundancy, plus the usual juggling of being a dad, grandfather and mental health officer at my local football club. Is this enough to deal with and do we neglect our own Mental Health?
I would love to hear your thoughts on this.
