I don’t fail in open, explicit competition enough. I don’t ask for things and get turned down enough.
Really, I don’t do it much at all, and that’s got to be a mistake because the optimal number of rejections is much, much higher than zero.
So to help me pump those numbers up, I’ve set a numerical target for the year: 250.
Okay, I admit I’m starting small. I’ll up my goal if I over-achieve or go into some profession where rejection is easier to come by, like sales. You can follow along and watch my progress.
If you want your own rejection log, I’ve even made a one click deployable webapp for you.
Go out there and get rejected!
