Failing to achieve your business goals this time shouldn't being depression to you. There is a saying that says when you fall down, you have to rise up again and so if you fall 10times, you have to rise up 10 times. That you weren't able to achieve your set business goals today doesn't mean you can't achieve it next time. All you have to do is to keep trying and never allow depression to set in. Remember winners never quit and quitters never win.

To deal with business depression or any depression at all, you have to seek the help of a doctor or a psychologist. Only them will check you and confirm if you are really depressed. They can also give you medications or tips that can help you cope with depression.

If you can't overcome it by seeing the doctor, then here are other ways to cope with it. You have to have a busy schedule, to keep your mind and body busy and forget about your problems.

It is really is the deal of this depression on the person is the real thing but being optimistic is a must as it accepts what should be happening or not or not must not be it will be to boost the depress one to him/her to overcome it so not blaming so much its self rather go to the best solution.

Sooner or later as an entrepreneur, you are going to face off against depression. At least the odds are extremely high. Those that deny it are probably hiding it or still in denial. It’s a virtually guaranteed part of entrepreneur life.Know the risks, be aware of the signs, and have a plan to prevent and deal with it. Positive self-talk and listening to old motivational content is great until you just don’t feel like you can face hearing it.There will be weeks that you may be so busy you won’t sleep for days. That may be a part of the job, but it isn’t healthy. Sleep is super important.

As there are bad debt so also are there bad business investment. However that doesn’t mean the investor is bad at doing business. Anyone who is depressed as a result of a failed business should give himself some credit at least for attempting one.

Entrepreneurs face some setbacks in the line of business like increased competition, lost customers, issues with partners, struggles to make payroll and others. All these may lead to depression especially if attention is not paid to the health. Exercise, good diet helps, having a fallback plan or savings, and then open up to people about how you feel.

Dealing with depression ain't an easy thing, one needs all the help one can get mostly from people who know you very well, family and friends, business associate and co. The button line is that you just need to talk to someone

The good entrepreneurs know that failed business goals is not the end of life or the end of the business is an indication that more effort needs to be put in place ant things have to be done in a different manner that will bring results. This should not in any way cause depression at all.

To be honest, most enterprenuers and business owners are the cause of their depression as they always fail to take feasibility studies of the business before starting out and also, they set goals that are not attainable in the nearest future. And once you fail to meet your goals, depression sets in.

Over expectations is one of the things that makes people get into depression when they are not supposed to because of the agony of disappointment. Depression is really a bad thing to happen to anyone because most times, such people end up becoming useless and some even commit suicide.

If you know you are dealing with depression about a failed business or whatever then you should seek professional help first about the depression then look for a way to get your business back on it feet and always seek professional help when starting a business.

I agree I think it is important that when you are setting business goals you don't overreach or over-promise. Also if you keep comparing yourself to someone who started at the same time you will never find happiness and the right motivation to reach your goal.

When man fails its an opportunity to retract steps and make good decisions not being depressed. Because Rome wasn't built in a day.
When a plan schedule fails, stand on your feet and restrategies, for better output.

I think there are a lot of things that a person can't get. It's not a good thing to go into depression based on seeing a dog. No, explain to yourself that everything in life.

The study followed 42 people with depression recruited from two clinics in England. Researchers compared this group to 51 people without depression from the same region.

Each group made a list of goals. People with depression had as many goals as people without depression, suggesting similar levels of motivation. However, people with depression had more avoidance goals and fewer approach goals. According to the researchers’ definitions, approach goals center around positive actions, such as showing more gratitude or taking more walks. Avoidance goals aim to reduce negative outcomes, such as quitting smoking or reducing angry outbursts.

This is very very difficult many businessmen deal with depression due to unachieve goals and objective of their business. This is why you need to be decisive when going into a business, I need to make good research I know the kind of business you are venturing into.

It is common not to achieve your set business goals because we're not always lucky, but you don't need to feel depressed. You can handle depression by trying to improve on your business strategies, find out what you're not doing right, pick up yourself and move on.

Exactly my point on setting of goals, if the goals are reasonable, even if it hasn't been achieved, one can see that progress has been made.

The problem comes when looking from the standpoint of present situation, to the set goals position and feeling one don't measure up yet.
