Don't go it alone when building your coworking space. Actually, don't go it alone when creating anything. I don't mean people need to work directly on your project—they just need to be around. Take the London Coworking Assembly. Members chat about everything from rooftop installations to coffee machines to member management. These aren't things you'd Google or find on Wikipedia. You need real conversations with real people who've been there. Same with the London Writers Club. People consistently say they achieve more sitting around that table than they ever would working from home alone. Here's the thing: taking care of ourselves—mentally, physically, creatively—whilst standing up to all the chaos happening right now is so much easier when you've got people around you. The isolation will break you before the business challenges do. So what? Community isn't a nice-to-have for coworking founders. It's survival equipment. If you're building an independent coworking space and feeling the weight of going solo, my Community Builder's Email Engine shows you exactly how to build the relationships that sustain both you and your space. #coworking  #communityisthekey #coworkinglondon
