I challenged myself to a week of rejection. At first, it was just for fun. Turns out, if you don't ask, you don't get. I've gotten access to some crazy experiences and met some really cool people. Also got a ton of free stuff. 🧵

it only took a one-week rejection therapy to desensitize myself from the pain of rejection & overcome my own fear. imagine who we'd become if people challenged themselves to more experiences like this. thinking about my next challenge; maybe a #humansofeurope ?

looking back, it's been a fun week overall. I've made other requests and gotten rejected, but I've learned to not care so much about the "yes" or "no" nor how others perceive me. It's increased my confidence & my willingness to try new things.

Monday - Amsterdam Really wanted a chicken hotdog at a cash-only food stand, but didn't bring cash. I don't speak a word of Dutch and he doesn't understand English. Ended up drawing pictures on a notepad to communicate and got a free hotdog in exchange for Canadian chocolate

Friday - Amsterdam, Netherlands walked around the city for an entire day, and decided i'd ask 10 random strangers for compliments to see if they'd be happy to. 7 times out of 10, it actually worked. people really see things in you that you might not see in yourself <3

@JoshButtitta I love this way of looking at it! I've also found that most people are afraid of saying no to others, rejection therapy is almost an irony in itself from that perspective.
