Subtitle: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible, One Rejection at a Time
Author: Jia Jiang
Five-Second Summary: A hilarious and enlightening account of an introvert's attempt to overcome the fear of rejection by trying to get rejected and blogging about the experience.
Best Quote: "I was starting to see just how important my communication style was to the outcomes I was getting. When I was confident, friendly, and open, people seemed more inclined to go along with my request; even if they said no, they at least stay engaged longer to ask questions. If I could just figure out the right way to communicate each situation, I might increase my chance of being accepted--and also decrease my fears about a possible rejection. Maybe rejection was much less black-and-white than it seemed--it wasn't just about being in the right place at the right time to get what I wanted or not. Maybe there were things I could do to influence or even change the outcome."
This tells you to beat fear and success comes at a time.
Step by step.
Slow and steady.
Just don't give up upon yourself.
Believe to live. ;)
