Reflecting on my childhood, my mother's influence, and the profound lessons she taught me regarding rejection and persistence…
Being a shy kid who developed ADHD as a way to find control in an unpredictable world.
Watching my immigrant mother work door-to-door, I witnessed her face constant rejection. Instead of taking it personally, she viewed it as a numbers game, which taught me that "no" is rarely permanent.
"No Means No, Just for Today" Rejection is often temporary. Whether it's applying for a job, asking for a promotion, or pitching a #bitcoin project, the circumstances (or the person saying no) might change tomorrow.
My way to handle rejection is to use time to work hard and improve my craft. By becoming an artist, I can eventually turn those "no's" into "yes's," just as I did as an Army Veteran and casino Dice Dealer in #LasVegas
If something is "off the menu" today, that doesn't mean it will be forever. Persistence and self-growth can eventually change your destiny. #stacksats
