Why rejection is good for entrepreneurs

I think rejection is good for founders.

And you need it as part of your life.

‍

If you take it personally, that’s normal. 

‍

What you are building is very personal.

Your startup is personal if you care about it deeply.

‍

I have faced many types of rejection before. 

‍

- Different types of criticism

- Wrong conclusions about my company

- Distorted perceptions of our product & mission

‍

My instant thinking was often to be angry.

"What the heck are you talking about?"

‍

But I knew I had to listen.

Understand the thinking of others.

‍

Rejection gives us different perspectives.

Rejection helps us learn from other humans.
