PPI #118: The Rejection Myth - How to Overcome Fear of Rejection

Here is a seven step framework that you can use to overcome the fear of rejection and step into the life that you were meant to live.

KEY POINTS

Focus on Collecting as Many No's as Possible - To overcome fear of rejection recognize that yes lives in the land of no. Send out as many proposals, as many job applications as possible. Eventually the yes’s will materialize provided that you are sending out and focusing on just collecting those rejections.

Don't Think of it as a Rejection - Just think of it as you're going out there to collect data, and we can only learn and move forward by collecting that data.

Rejection is Evidence That You're Stepping Outside of Your Comfort Zone - Growth requires some degree of stress. The stress we feel from rejection leads to growth and development. 

Visualize Rejection - Think about the moments that you are most worried about rejection, picture that it will happen and how you at your best will respond to it.

Build Yourself Up - Write a list of all the reasons why you are great and why you deserve to achieve your goals.

Decode Your Fears - Really try to understand what it is that you're actually afraid of with regards to the potential rejection.
