    I was crushed(崩溃).The next few days I thought about this3and realized just how4I truly was. I thought maybe it was time to count my 5and get another "real job". Luckily, I realized that having that thought meant I had a problem-my fear of 6. If I was going to keep moving forward with my company I'd have to 7 this fear of being rejected again. So, I8 Google to help solve my problem and I found a game. The 9 of the game is to help you get over your fear of rejection by 10 seeking out rejection. I loved it. I11 I would try it to help me remove this fear.

    What came next was something I could have12 imagined. As my rejection journey continued, I began to feel more and more 13 when asking for things, realizing I could focus on the 14 factors.

Most people believe avoiding rejection is a good thing, 16 that's not true. When we 17 away from rejection, we reject ourselves and our ideas before the world ever has a 18 to reject them.
