Why Rejection is Awesome: Master the art of rejection to desensitize your greatest fears
All of us can identify with the fear of rejection. Why is rejection feared? What does it mean? Why are we so afraid of rejection? Jia Jiang has mastered the art of rejection, and lives day in and day out trying to get rejected as much as possible.
In this Talk, you'll learn to master your own fear of rejection and how to make it your advantage, how to turn rejections into opportunities, how to say 'NO' and make me a fan --
and why rejection is your best friend.
Based on Jia's life story, entrepreneurial journey and 100 Days of Rejection Therapy, Jia has spoken to numerous organizations and thousands of people on different topics. Jia's life goal is to build a world without the fear of rejection. Speaking to live audiences will be a big part of achieving this goal. He is currently authoring his book about the Fear of Rejection that will be out in spring 2014.

But this contribution ..made me remember what I liked so much meeting this people..experiencing this way of life and this way of feeling and communicating it. So different to my European Culture and Business world... but so human and so nice.

    To be rejected by one's kindred spirit/s is sad, of which a possible cause could be the anti-social in our midst, who turn decent, albeit naïve people, against each other. However, to be rejected by proactive miss-fits themselves, is truly a blessing, because, it leads to the joy of freedom from pathological conflict, now THAT is surely Awesome.

If you can build a platform where I can call after and share the experience, where sales people, entrepreneurs, join to hold each other accountable for their frustrations, ideas. Most of the people do not want to share this, but maybe a place where everyone can go and share that exactly That would be maybe adding technology Jia Jiang

    I don't think asking someone to play basketball in their back yard counts as a real rejection experience, b/c 99.9% of people would refuse entry to a madman. What would count is a request that's reasonable, but embarrassing;for example being on foot & asking for directions to a far off street/monument in a different part of the city & pretending that you've checked it in the map, or asking in a train if the next stop is going to be one that was passed half an hour ago. Also having to spend time with those people & experiencing the contempt/pitty/ superiority they treat you with, goes a long way towards making this a genuinely intimidating/rejecting experience.
