However, here is the most important part. These rates are consistent over time, suggesting that year-after-year nationwide economic factors don’t have much of an impact on the survival rates of small business in the U.S. since they’ve been keeping statistics for more than 75 years. The real question is then, why do small businesses struggle consistently during those first years? An ah–ha moment. The fact that small business failure in America is statistically predictable almost to the year suggests the culprit is likely patterns of human behavior rather than economic factors. The number one listed conflict in marriage that eventually leads to divorce among small business owners is the lack of money. Yet, if money comes from your business and your business outcome is not directly tied to the economy then the issues for business failure are internal. The common excuse of lack of money is not really the issue when it comes to divorce. Lack of money is a symptom masking the real internal conflict that inevitably causes divorce. 24
It’s not the money, it never has been. As much as I wanted to believe that the lack of money and my failed business had caused to my downfall, that wasn’t the truth. The real answer was months away. In the meantime, I swallowed the false notions of what caused my failures and I incubated a manifestation of what accelerated my ultimate downfall. Severe depression. 25
