Chapter Three Blast!

Rejection, rejection - who likes it?! I know I don't, but I have to admit that I wouldn't be who I am without it! Would you believe that most of my confidence came from being told "No" or "I'll keep you in mind?" Well, it did! At first, I almost gave into the notion of not being good enough until I realized that "no" didn't mean "never." I realized that the only person who could discourage me from reaching my goal was ME, not the person holding my resume or the person flipping through my business proposal. For that very reason, learn to use each disappointing occurrence as motivation. Instead of giving up, let it push you to be better, to be stronger. Let it show you that you are good enough, but you choose greatness! Anytime you experience rejection, reflect on how you can be better. Plan your approach and go for it! Remember, falling down will never be the end of your story as long as you get back up!
