Counting the no’s.
If we start counting the no’s, they stop affecting us that much.
It allows us to say, “Oh! it’s just the 5th no” or ”It’s only the 21st one.” And since we have survived 21 of them, we aren’t that afraid of the 22nd either.
Counting the no’s help us move toward “It’s not about me... It’s just one another thing I tried that didn’t work.”
Most of the times, we only need one yes to move forward. Embracing and counting the no’s can help us reach there more effortlessly.
