Direct Selling

How to take care of your mental health as a direct seller?

Your mental health is connected to every aspect of your life, including work and productivity. It will be impossible to maintain a successful business without stable mental functioning. As for the past few years, the anxiety and stress at workplaces raised, and mental health issues have become prevalent. Thankfully, the awareness of mental health and the importance to talk about it also increased, making it comparatively easier for people to come out and seek help. 

For a QNET direct seller, the work pressure can go up and down based on the pace and level of work planned. That’s right, as an independent representative, you have the freedom to set the time and plan of work. It gives you a considerable advantage in avoiding too much work pressure. However, there will be times when you feel down, and every bit of work can make you anxious, especially when making decisions and taking risks. At some point, the work pressure can increase, so it it crucial to take care of your mental health as a direct seller. Know that it is important to rest and work on your mental health before it worsens. 

How is mental health connected with business?

Business is a very rewarding career; however, it demands much work on your part. Direct marketing and networking are needed for good results when it comes to direct selling. Constantly keeping in touch with customers is a requirement. Your mental health, which is your cognitive functioning and social wellbeing, is strongly connected with your career. Mental health issues can affect your productivity considerably. As direct selling businesses expect productivity in return for a reward, the whole business can vary on how you feel mentally. 

Here’s how you can take care of yourself

Get enough rest

First of all, get an adequate amount of rest on a daily basis. To be productive, healthy and energetic throughout the day, a person needs 8 hours of sleep. Not getting this amount of sleep can affect your work, personal life and mental health. On the other hand, if you are continuously suffering from a lack of sleep for several weeks, it might suggest mental issues such as Insomnia. If you are going through such extreme cases, try to get professional support. Or else, make sure to add 8 hours of sleep as a must in your daily routine. A good rest can improve your mental health and productivity at work. 

Maintain physical health

Being physically healthy can improve your mental health. It is a major decision to take care of yourself. To be physically active, you can choose exercises or go for a walk regularly, which would be a great help, both for mind and body. In addition, having a healthy and nutritious diet will have a huge impact on your physical health. Plus, studies suggest that a good diet can improve your health by reducing extreme mood swings. It can keep a balance between your mental and physical health. So, taking care of your physic can significantly impact your mental health. 

Get help from your team

When QNET offers the chance to work as a team in developing the direct selling business, it offers you a helping hand. This support is not just in business development, but you can talk with your team members about the work pressure you are going through. Talking about your mental situation with people can be helpful to your mental health and the business. Your team will be willing to help you out with business by sharing responsibilities. You can take a break and clear your mind from all the tensions. 

Do things that interest you

Most people join the QNET direct selling because they are passionate about business. But that does not mean that it does not affect them when things go bad and riskier. It might affect their social and mental wellbeing. However, having several hobbies and cultivating new interests can make you feel better. So, instead of only following the business and related things, focus on other habits. It could be movies, music, travel, writing, gaming, gardening or anything. Having such wholesome hobbies and interests can improve how your mood. Also, doing multiple activities can boost your creativity and productivity at work. 

Seek professional help

Taking care of yourself is important in preventing mental health issues. But if you are already suffering from Depression, Anxiety Disorder or Insomnia, it is crucial to get professional support. Know that there’s nothing to be ashamed of in seeking help from psychologists. Mental health is as much as important as your physical health. Without being stable mentally, it will be extra work for you to maintain stability in your business. Talk about how you feel, and if it’s getting out of control, consult a therapist. It’s your responsibility to take care of your mental health. 

Want to be productive in your direct selling business? First, try taking care of yourself. Know that healthy mental functioning is important for your work productivity, especially in business. To become a successful QNET direct seller, it is vital to work with a clear mind and act without pressure. 

Important note: Once again, getting professional support is necessary if your mental health worsens. Talking to a friend or taking a trip won’t cure your depression or anxiety disorder. Travelling, reading, music or movies is only an escape for a few hours or days. However, it could work if you are a person working under pressure and trying to reduce tension with a break. So, it is important to get professional support if you are suffering from mental health issues.
