Getting Past Rejection

I believe the world would be an amazing place, if we were all less afraid of hearing the word “no.” We would all be better employees, job-seekers, entrepreneurs, friends, spouses and lovers if we could lessen that fear of “no.” It is amazing the contortions we put ourselves through to avoid “rejection,” including denying ourselves the very thing we want, so that we don’t have to bear the pain of someone else denying us (yes, I know it’s perverse, and it happens ALL THE TIME). That said, here is one article by Susan Baroncini-Moe at LifeHack that helps us to chip away at the fear of “no.” Thanks, Susan, you have made the world a little bit better!
