Embracing the uncertainty between.

We think we fear the rejection, the "no". What we resist though is the uncertainty between creating tension and getting an answer.

You may have felt it when you asked someone out for a date or shared an idea with your boss or planned a trip with your friends. What's challenging is the wait between sending the message and getting a reply. Once we have an answer, we can process it, even if it's a no.

The gap of uncertainty stops us from doing it again. But if we keep doing it again, we can learn to be okay with it.
