The Myth of Rejection
Rejection is a Myth. Think about this. Someone might fear doing something because they believe they might get rejected. e.g. asking someone for a date, seeking a promotion or asking someone to buy their product or service. Before asking for whatever they want, they do not have it, so even if someone turns them down, they still don’t have it, In reality, nothing has changed.
However, what has the potential for change is the story they attach to the denial of their request. If they ending up saying ‘I am no good, my product is not wanted or I feel embarrassed’, they havecreated this. The Myth of Rejection is another example of our co-creation of our Being with our environment.
