I knew rejection on a cellular level. In fact, after years of working with people, I’ve learned that rejection runs painfully deep for everyone. Someone basically says to us, “No, it’s not you. You’re not good enough for me. I don’t choose you. I don’t choose to build a life with you.” We then become obsessed with the fact that we weren’t chosen and convinced that we’re not good enough to be chosen. Thoughts of how we can prove our worth to the other person and win them over hijack our minds.
