Now is the Time to Stop Being Afraid and Risk Rejection!
Have you been allowing the fear of being rejected prevent you from trying new things?
If the title of this story spoke to you for one reason or another, then mark today as the day you stop being afraid to risk rejection in your life.
No matter what this statement may happen to apply to at the time, I can pretty much guarantee that it struck a nerve when you read it, and if it doesn’t and didn’t apply to you before, it will at some time during your lifetime.
So keep that in mind, as you consider my reason for bringing this point up in the first place. The thing that first got me thinking about the fear of rejection lately was the Medium Writers Challenge (MWC), which offers the potential to win several thousand dollars.
Let’s talk about that for a moment, and I’ll share my thoughts about the topic, fear of rejection, and how it may apply in the case of the contest.
Afterwards, I’ll provide what I believe are some useful tips that can help counteract certain negative emotions, such as being overly concerned about failing, or being rejected.
