What if I told you that you get to choose your future reactions to actions from others that in the past you would have interpreted as rejecting? If in the past, someone told you no and now you had to feel terrible, what would you like to feel instead? Excited? More Empowered? More determined? All of these are possible.
You start by looking at:
Your behaviors that are determined by:
Your capabilities that are determined by:
Your beliefs that are determined by:
Your Identity...who you think you are.
Each of these levels are more encompassing or broader than the level below it. Change your identity, who you believe you think you are and you change everything. This may be more change than you need to get past the fear of rejection.
I commonly work with people at the level of beliefs. We identify beliefs that do not serve them as they want to be served, create new beliefs that are more empowering and then swap them out! New beliefs enable new capabilities and those create new behaviors and feelings.
It is an absolute hoot to watch in action and it all starts here: How do you want to behave...how do you want to feel and/or respond? You get to choose!
I know this explanation is short and cursory, but it is the place I start in doing this kind of change work in my clients.
More next time...Jack
