After watching this video you will learn how to conquer the fear of rejection & feel empowered to actually go seek it out. I have been rejected by dozens of women throughout my life and made 50k cold calls in my sales job so I don’t care about rejection because I have come to accept it as an important component of our human experience.
Evolutionary psychologists believe it all started when we were hunter gatherers who lived in tribes. Since we could not survive alone, being ostracized from our tribe was basically a death sentence. As a result, we developed an early warning mechanism to alert us when we were at danger of being “kicked off the island” by our tribe mates - and that was rejection.
In today’s video I will share with you a new way to conquer rejection, it’s a 3 step framework that I have learned based on experiencing thousands of rejections first hand
Seek out rejection (if you do not ask you never receive, why you would want to receive in the first place. if you want to be respected in every room you walk into, then you need to earn people’s respect, you only earn respect from doing things other people view as difficult, starting a business for example. Other people have everything you want. You do not make money, you take money. Seek out opportunities to take money, this will result in rejection. Making cold calls for example
Be indifferent toward rejection. In the wolf of Wall Street he talks about picking up the phone to solve all of your problems. You thinking there is a problem with rejection is the problem. Dealing with rejection well is a matter of survival.
Supreme confidence about your ability to produce in the future - people are naturally in conserve mode, they save bc they won’t believe they can get more in the future, it’s scarcity thinking, saving food is scarcity, being jealous towards others success is scarcity.
