Over time, our anxiety builds up, either imploding or exploding. It should not come as a surprise that entrepreneurs are more prone to mental distress than the general population. A study entitled "Are Entrepreneurs Touched with Fire" by Dr. Michael Freeman surveyed 242 entrepreneurs; 174 (72%) of them had mental health concerns, 118 (49%) had one or more lifelong mental health conditions, and 13 (5.4%) were suicidal – numbers are rounded off.

Anxiety plays out like this: it invades our productivity and, consequently, our goals. All it takes is to not see progress in a day, then a week or a month. The next thing you know, you are standing at the peak of the highest anxiety hill, depressingly recalling your record of failures and doubting your future.

This book recounts several anxiety-causing incidents set in different situations, which you are likely to relate to.

It is a collection of anecdotes, emotions, feelings, frustrations, and philosophies that will show you that when anxiety is removed from your entrepreneurial process, creativity reaches its optimum.

You cannot be anxious and creative at the same time. Anxiety and creativity cannot coexist; one must give way for the other.
