Hello, my name is André, I'm from Brazil. I use TED to practice listening to English, today driving to work I came listening to your story. I was thrilled to hear it. You're a warrior. Congratulations!

This particular tedtalk is the reason why it is important to also checkout videos with not a lot views. We often subconsciously tend to always check out videos with millions of views more but this video has more impact on me than most videos I have viewed that have millions of views. Very inspiring talk 👏 👏

I never new this was a thing?? Don't people simply chose what to watch by the title? Omg, I'm so confused lol

So so inspired!! I am 53 years & have feared rejection for the longest time. It’s only last year that I understood that rejection is a part of life & your Ted talk reiterated that for me. You are a courageous woman!! God Bless you ❤Loads of love & May you continue to inspire more & more people.

[@d.s.carterministries735]

Dr. Melissa, this was EXTREMELY helpful and therapeutic for me, on a number of levels. It was a 13 minute therapy session that’s provided me with the pathway to forgiveness, toward others and hopefully, in sharing with others, will provide them with the same pathway to forgive me for my actions. I’m going to start a podcast in the next several months and would love for you to be one of my first guests. I’ll be in touch. I listened to this at just the right time. Thank you so much.

Thank you for sharing an amazing view of life. Failure or rejection is not an obstacle to life, but a stepping stone. It's a great stimulus for you to overcome all those difficulties and live a wonderful life. I, who recently retired, also made a resolution to live my life anew. Thank you again.

Thank you so much! Enjoy your new life :)

[@Sophie-py8cr]

A beautiful talk!

[@amagicion5130]

One thing that is very nicely highlighted by her attempt to sell her book to a movie producer is that the state of having been rejected is rarely discernable from the state of having never tried. It is almost always true that the worst thing that can happen when you do reach out is you return to the same state you were in prior to trying, so the only "risk" you are actually incurring is in your own psyche.

[@nevenaivanova480]

Thank you for pointing this out! It was really my intention to show the importance of trying, which is just as important as succeeding :)

Браво, Невена! Точно така! Никога не позволявай някой да те определя! Много българки, включително и аз започват в чистене и гледане на деца и после постигат мечтите си. Много "доброжелатели" отстрани искат да ти отрежат крилете, но всичко зависи от твоето виждане за живота. Една "приятелка" казваше, че съм създала оазис за децата си, че светът навън е съвсем друг. Аз винаги им казвам и уча, че светът е такъв, какъвто си го създадеш. Ако искаш да ти е уютно и красиво, трябва да си го направиш. Благодаря за споделянето и за куража! Аз също имам клиенти-семейства приятели, които са ми ставали гарант при наемане на жилище в Лондон. Нещо, което е толкова рисковано, та даже и близък човек може да ти откаже. Но свястните и умни хора виждат на кой може да се разчита. Желая ти здраве, много любов и щастлив живот където и да си!

Браво Мацка! Показваш на цял свят, че си истинска българка! Най-древните в Европа, с култура и труд постигаме всичко - не чрез насилие. Давай смело напред и не им се давай на алчните, завистливите, на страхливите, на низшите духом - ти имаш много силен дух - не позволявай никой да ти го пречупи! Така научи и децата си! Питаш как така източна Европа е бедна, а западната богата? - Какво имали те, което ние сме нямали? И защо са се родили богати а ние бедни? Всички от източна Европа знаем отговора... и ти даже, но не смееше да го кажеш, да не отиде темата към политическа. С агресия и колонизация, станаха богати!!! 1400г римска империя - само шепа хора богати- 90% от населението на цяла Европа тогава са били роби. После Византийска империя - 300г. и Османска 500г. След римската империя. След разпада на Римската и по време на средновековието - бяха много бедни и болни и голяма смъртност от болести.. няма кой да им копае и работи като роб! Така че тръгнаха да колонизират света! Нямаха достатъчно храна в западна европа- защото не владееха земеделието! Както ние - източно европейците - ние сме хилядолетни земеделци - на балканите сме първите в Европа с Култура - Земеделие - не Варварство и не Лов! ... а онези там не знаеха как да оцеляват!!! Неандерталци все още...всичките приличат на пещерните хора! Най много неандерталци е имало в западна Европа! Затова тези първобитни и агресивни хора (ловци и събирачи - не културни земеделци!) започнаха да пътуват по света за да убиват и да завземат ресурите на другите, защото в Европа вече нямаше от къде да завземат повече! Та така станаха богати - с много насилие и убийства извън Европа! За да вземат ресурсите на другите държави!!! Ние имахме и 50г Комунизъм- за източна Европа, за да ни досъсипят държавите и да ни направят бедни - да ни вземат земята, поминъка и всичко. А сега ни докараха и измислената Демокрация - която още повече ни фалира държавата... Та с робства и насилие станаха богати западни европейски държави! Това е истината. ...завзеха с насилие света - Цяла Африка! Най-големият континент... след азия! Цяла Америка, Цяла австралия... Индонезия... Всички острови! Избивали са тотално населението! Цяла централна и източна Европа я държаха в мизерия и нарочно ни обедниха - чрез комунизма... а сега си поставиха същите тези от западна европа тук малоумни купени политици- клоуни на конци, които все още ни управляват! Който политик не иска да е с тия колонизатори - го убиват. Ние нямаме мъже с топки вече. Публиката, на която говореше това и те знаеха отговора - защо едните имат пари а другите не... всичко е станало велико чрез кражба и насилие - Империи, господства, Владетели, Религии, режими... и Крале - много Крале и кралства в западна европа.. Там са крали, крали, много.. ние нямаме Крале - а имаме Царе - разликата е огромна. Замък - е дума за място където си трупа Замъкнатото Краля ама много кралият! Това е истината.. не чрез труд и учене! Тези които управляват ги мързи да работят - затова си наемат слуги! Само високо културните хора така стават богати - като теб и нямат слуги.
