Rejection is Not Personal

Key Principle:
In sales, rejection is often about the product, timing, or budget — not about you as a person.


Real-Life Examples:

  1. Thomas Edison: Over 1,000 failed attempts before inventing the light bulb.
  2. Colonel Sanders: Rejected over 1,000 times before KFC took off.


Exercise:
Write down three recent rejections and identify if they were due to product, timing, or budget.
