Rejection is part of the journey to success. For being able
to reach to a yes and achieving something of value in life, we will hear many
'No's along the way. Successful people have all heard the word NO many times
but what seperated them from others was their interpretation of the word No.
There are countless stories of how Michael Jordan was rejected because he was
told that he was not good enough. Walt Disney was rejected because of not being
creative enough in his work. If all these people had interpreted ‘No’ as never,
they wouldn't have pursued their dream. And they would have never been the icon
that they are today.
‘Action’ was born with the
intention to change people's perspective on hearing rejection and failure in
the journey of achieving their dreams. ‘No’ can be perceived as a never which
leads to becoming a passive individual and doing nothing or quitting. Instead,
it can be interpreted as a sign of ‘more action and improvement needed’. This
perspective is about taking action and going forward on this journey. ‘Action’
is about changing perspective from seeing ‘No’ as a turn off into seeing it as
turning the engine ‘On’ to continue going in that direction. It is about a
change of perspective and choosing an empowering mindset.
