From Coach Isaac.
Okay, so. Next time you feel rejected or criticized, catch it. Don't beat yourself up for being scared. Almost everyone in the world is afraid of rejection. First, notice what your body is doing. Check what you feel.
Then ask yourself the three questions. Answer honestly, in writing.
1. DID I DO SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T REPRESENT WHO I AM?
2. AM I CHASING SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T WANT ME, BUT WANTS SOME KIND OF ACT?
3. AM I WILLING TO FAKE IT FOR SOMEONE?
IF I DID SOMETHING THAT ISN'T ME: WHAT I DID, AND DO I KEEP DOING IT?
ONE PERSON I TRUST, AND ONE THING I'LL ASK THEM FOR HONEST CRITICISM ON
MY DECISION, IN MY OWN HANDWRITING: WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK AND SAY ABOUT ME IS NONE OF MY BUSINESS.
Do your best. Then open a big umbrella and let the rain of criticism slide right off it.
