An entertaining and inspiring account of conquering his fear of rejection, offering a completely new perspective on how to turn a no into a yes.
Jia Jiang came to the United States with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed, and spiraled into a period of deep self doubt. But he realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be, and he needed to find a way to cope with being told no without letting it destroy him. Thus was born his "100 days of rejection" experiment, during which he willfully sought rejection on a daily basis--from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes) to his famous request to get Krispy Kreme doughnuts in the shape of Olympic rings (yes, with a viral video to prove it).
Jia learned that even the most preposterous wish may be granted if you ask in the right way, and shares the secret of successful asking, how to pick targets, and how to tell when an initial no can be converted into something positive. But more important, he learned techniques for steeling himself against rejection and ways to develop his own confidence--a plan that can't be derailed by a single setback. Filled with great stories and valuable insight, Rejection Proof is a fun and thoughtful examination of how to overcome fear and dare to live more boldly.

评分老实说,在读这本书之前,我心里是有点奇怪的,因为在我心中住着一个世俗的中年人,她告诉我,拒绝就是行不通,你应该尝试其他的路,而不应该一再推销你的观点或者商品,我也曾经是个推销员,我也曾经是店里销售的冠军,我知道有些顾客可能是勉为其难买下我给她们...

评分勇敢地智取,而不是懒惰地期望用蛮力解决问题。 不怕失败,勇敢尝试是好的。 但作者尝试的很多事情,无关紧要,失败成本不高。 有些时候,失败会影响后续行动的成功率。因为采用鲁莽愚蠢的方法造成的失败,会降低自己的形象,消耗有限的资源,疏远可能提供帮助的人。也有可能让...

Jiang's rejection journey is quite inspiring and interesting, but I like the last few chapters most, in which he helped his wife find a job in Google with what he learned from dealing with rejections. His wife is admirable as well. What a lovely couple haha~
评分最有意思也最有启发的是作者讲述自己的经历,让我也跃跃欲试,导致有点兴奋反而无法很快入睡。后面摆名人例子、拔高上价值、以及帮助自己老婆找工作啥的,鸡汤味就有点重了。对于rejection的分析有理有据,提供的tips有很有帮助。

评分故事本身我很喜欢,对我很有帮助。阅读时一直有小学生作文的感觉,没有用的心理独白太多,不是很有意思的比喻,还有个人觉得没有想象力的不好笑的幽默。但是还是觉得作者很勇敢很棒
