Quick Tips On Handling Rejection

Looking for a way to handle rejection?

Edward W. Smith, motivational speaker, author and TV show host, who specializes in quick tips on how to move your life ahead even faster, offers the following advice.

The secret to handling rejection is to keep coming back. You have to be in the game to win it and if you quit, it is over. Remember, success is generally located just beyond the spot you fell. First, find a way to avoid taking the rejection personally, so you can deal with the rejection objectively. While rejections most always seem personal, they rarely are.

Next analyze why the rejection occurred. Then look for ways to either change the thing that was rejected or find new places where acceptance is more likely. Most things in life are a numbers game, in that we have to make X amount of tries before we get acceptance. Figure out what the number of trys is required before you get a win. Look at the rejection as bringing you one step closer to hitting that magic number of rejections that will bring you acceptance.

Finally, remember that winners lose more than losers lose; winners keep losing until they win.
