1. Not everyone will like you
Rejection is rampant when you don't like pleasing people.
Be okay with it because pleasing people is of no use.

2. Knock on more doors
You’re lucky because you haven't had enough doors slammed on your face.
When the value you have meets the value people need, the doors stop slamming.
Understand that what you have to offer, someone needs it. You just have to knock on more doors.

3. Set expectations right, be free
Sometimes what you’re labelling as a rejection is actually your unfair expectation.
You were never meant to be there at the first place!
If you could think a little less, you could face rejections more easily.

4. Surprising? Or not...
Believe it or not,
Most likely its been a rejection that has levelled you up!
Are you now showing up on time because you and your ex fell apart because of it?
Rejection actually helps you level up whether you liked it or not.

5. You may just be too early!
True this...
“What’s rejected now, may be accepted tomorrow”
Do not judge yourself for the rejections because you never know, you may be just too early!
Keep going ahead.

6. Rejection > Regret
Probably cliched, but true.
Remember that a lesson is better than regret.
Ask that question, open that door, send that email - don’t fear rejection, embrace it.
Be okay with it, and no matter what, don’t let it stop you!

7. Work when it’s genuine
Not all reasons for your rejection will be correct.
If you hear one of it repeating across, that's the first one you must target to work upon.
Work on the reason of rejection. Never take it personally, because each of us has got room for improvement.
