There is no rejection when your aim is expression. Let's put an emphasis on the power of your expression, one who expresses himself freely does not only seek admiration, but expansion.

100%. And fear is the mind-killer. The fact is though, that we only create problems and worries in our own minds. The reality is completely neutral and it (along with other people) could care less about how you feel and think. This is why it's important to stay indifferent to most things in life and do not take it so seriously. Are you going to live with fear in your heart and mind, or are you going to live freely with love and abundance? It's really up to you at the end of the day, nobody else can decide for you.

No amount of rejection now would make the slightest bit of difference to me. Please trust me, each and everyone who reads this, regardless of your age, sex, experience or lack of, YOU ARE ENOUGH!

Feeling rejected has helped me understand my true intentions behind the actions I take towards others. For example, If I say hello to someone and get ignored I’ll feel rejected cause I was expecting them to acknowledge me. Made me realize how selfish it was to be living with those expectations

The other day after dropping my daughter off at work, I was in a hurry and drove off quickly. That evening, my daughter asked why I ignored her co-worker when she waved at me. I didn't even see her and it had nothing to do with her. Things like this happen all the time.

Fantastic introspection on your part! I came to this same realization over time regarding many things: giving a compliment, giving a gift, genuinely apologizing to someone, etc. Your intentions in all these must be geared towards the benefit of the recipient. If you get upset if they don't accept these things "the way you expected or wanted them to" then you weren't truly doing them for the recipient in the first place, you were doing it for yourself. (so you feel good, so you can feel superior or have them owe you in the future, or so you could feel like all was forgiven and stop feeling bad.)

Also, it's really great that you overcame yourself and take the leap. To me, you're a winner. You encourage me to take chances and also beat my oversensitivity to rejection no mater how many mental gymnastics i perform. What's the alternative to rejection? Literally and absolutely nothing. Nothing happens if we don't do anything. We either suffer from rejection or from no improvement or emptyness.

Although I didn’t get the result that I had hoped for, now I have my definitive answer and I can act like a normal human being around her, and not be so nervous anymore. Besides that, I can shift my focus towards more important things. And to be honest she let me down real easy, she was very respectful about the rejection and still considered my feelings. I feel more confident to speak my mind and be honest with myself in the future as well.

Life should be seen as a game of tetris. It's a game you cannot win as the game will always get harder until there is no way you can beat it. Rather, the objective is to see how far you can get and consider improving on your previous attempts as a victory itself. By applying this philosophy you maximize the effort you put on achieving things while at the same time minimizing the pain that inevitable failure brings. If you go to a battle knowing you're defeated but at the same time focus on seeing how much of a fight you can give before falling you will get as far as you possibly can and accept defeat with a smile if such is the outcome

I have been struggling with the fear of rejection for most of my life. But recently I found that stoicism and philosophy in general has helped me with this problem, without me even realising it. I have taken a chancs, of asking someone out. A leap that younger me would be terrified of taking. And only after doing so, did I realise how easy it was to do. Because the goal I was looking for was to simply express myself, and I didn't really put "success" as the objective of the interaction

Doesn't bother me at all actually because I'm the prize at the end of the day and I know my own self-worth which is really high. To be completely indifferent whether you win or lose helps out a lot. Nobody can take your power away in that state of mind, and at the end of the day, nobody cares anyway so why even bother? Just focus on your own well-being and happiness because nobody gives a shit how you feel inside.

I applied for 12 jobs and nearly rejected by all of them and found another job which i was being offered without i applied for and it was more suitable and better than all of the jobs i desired to be accepted. In fact, after some time later, i talked to some of the people in those jobs which i did not qualified for, but the people got them, they explained to me what they were like and I was disappointed what I was even getting into. So, i had a relief that those were the jobs which i would not even want to do for the long term!

Well, right now, I am quite happy about it but I am very aware that anything can change and I might go back all over again. I think it's more about our attitudes than the circumstances in the outer world that can impact our happiness. When I am happy, the world is okay, not the other way around! I am getting more and more detached from the outcomes of circumstances to affect my well-being mentally. I am like, If I get the job, okay, If I don't I am still okay, it's their loss, there are thousands of other jobs which I can apply for. I now feel like when I go to a job interview etc, it's like the observation about new things and experimenting. That way, I am detached of the outcome but at the same time have the power to keep the faith fresh to go forward. I hope this also helps you, or anyone who reads this comment. Good luck, you will be in a much better situation as the video describes.

@@egemen261 You know, for all the crap you see people write on the internet, comment sections ablaze with gas-lighting, people arguing, personal attacks etc - it is really refreshing to read what you wrote. A total stranger, giving me very valuable advice. The point you make about things changing is especially pertinent - I have seen so many recently have things turned upside down at the drop of a hat. Funny thing is - you are literally reciting what I would tell others. About not being dependent on external factors or opinions. It is just hard to swallow that pill for myself. Look, just wanted to say thanks. I have screen shot this message and will revisit it when I am 'having a moment'.

Not really. You need to spend some time to yourself until you are completely surrounded by yourself like in a solipsistic bubble. The emptyness and complete hole in you will outweigh any chances you could have taken but regret did not take... You are either going to suffer in rejection or not taking any chances that resulting in dullness and emptyness. What is the alternative to rejection? Literally and absolutely nothing. Nothing happens... Isn't it more painful than being rejected? You are gonna suffer either way anyways...

I knew that the best way is not to think about the outcome when you approach someone. But I didnt really understood what that means so it never worked for me. I decided just not to put myself in such situations where other people can take control of my mood. And yes, it helped me avoid stress but I always felt that I m missing something in life. This has broaden my mind about the concept and I think I will try this in practice again. I hope it will be different..

My advice for people watching - Don't take schopenhauers words to mean that people who reject you don't deserve respect - dont be that person who lashes out or hates someone who rejects them. Just accept that you are different, not necessarily better, and that you can thrive and survive despite their opinion.

Love the channel and have been using it before I meditate and to help get me through tough times. Speaking of tough times, as a stoic enthusiast, what can one do if they are very self critical, self sabotage, and are feeling as though they have lost progress made on themselves? Thank you for your time, attention, and content 🙏🏻 All the best! - Alex

I have even a practical example of such a rejection. I was rejected by a girl, later I had a dream, which I interpreted as an outcome if there was no rejection, in which I was in the accident with that girl. My car was smashed in that dream, while at the same time I was with her in the car. In real life, I found out that she found another sugar daddy. So, rejection was a good thing for me and in the dream I got «proof» that it was a good thing. Also, probably inability to cope with/withstand rejection may be that a person can't choose things, people, etc. Rejection basically means to choose the things that someone needs. That person who fears rejection just can't choose the things, that mean something to him/her. It seems logical to me and at the same time it has sense. In the example above I couldn't choose people, now I can and do it easy. Though, still a bit anxious about rejection, but more in the sense of losing freedom.

The best part about being rejected by whatever you desire is that in the process you instead find your true self and your true potential and talent and a completely authentic way of life that suits and serves you well and much better than if the thing you desired had not rejected you.
