What does it mean?
• You can freely express your opinions, set your boundaries, direct other people and move about your life.!
• You can do all of this without fearing rejection.

What if I fear rejection?
• You’re withholding your “personal power”, or right to be just as you are.!
• You fear what others think about you, and are giving them unnecessary power to determine how you feel, what you do and even what you think.!
• You become powerless and subject to the whims of others.

It’s a mind trick…
• These insecurities are all occurring based on your own projections.!
• You’re making yourself powerless over what you believe about others.!
• It’s a false anticipation of some form of rejection.!
• Being uncomfortable in your own skin is like anticipating rejection at every turn.!
• You doom yourself to rejection before giving others a chance to respond.

Reality check!• People will reject you in the
real world, but not as often as you fear.!
• Dealing with occasional actual rejection is a lot easier than perpetual, self-inflicted anticipatory rejection of self-sabotage.!
• Realize that what you perceive as powerlessness is nothing more than self-sabotage, and it’s in your power to stop it!
