Individuals with this mindset can experience accelerating highs, but also tormenting, debilitating lows. They live on an unsustainable hamster wheel of constant striving and often wind up destroying the very things that they helped create.\xa0\xa0 Why?\xa0\xa0\u201cAccelerated Minds\u201d\xa0delves into this mindset with\xa0compassion, deep insight and discovered paths in which the vital energies of the entrepreneurial class can be directed in a more constructive and sustainable manner.\xa0\xa0Entrepreneurs need to learn how to shift gears and put a brake pedal on their overactive brains or else they will suffer. \u201cAccelerated Minds\u201d\xa0takes readers inside the workings of the minds of those who can\u2019t help risking it all \u2014 and offers new solutions for entrepreneurs to manage their mental health burdens.
