Rejection Proof: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through 100 Days of Rejection

An entertaining and inspiring account of Jia Jiang's effort to conquer his fear of rejection, offering a completely new perspective on how to learn from noes and get more yeses Jia Jiang came to the United States from China with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed, and spiraled into a period of deep depression. He realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be, and he needed to find a way to cope with being told no without letting it destroy him. Thus was born his "100 days of rejection" experiment during which he willfully sought rejection on a daily basis--from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes). He learned that even the most preposterous wish may be granted if you ask in the right way, and shares the secret of successful asking, how to pick targets, and how to tell when an initial no can be converted into a yes. But more important, he learned techniques for steeling himself against rejection and ways to develop his own confidence--a plan that can't be derailed by a single setback.

A cross between A. J. Jacobs's funny narrative voice and Susan Jeffers's dynamic wisdom and self-empowerment, Rejection Proof is a fun, thoughtful examination of how to overcome our fears and dare to live more boldy.
