Be brave enough to stand up to the fear of<br />
rejection. For every no takes, you one step<br />
closer to the next yes. As women, we tend to<br />
be emotionally attached to our product or<br />
service and often feel that when it is rejected<br />
it is a reflection of us, but this is so far from<br />
the truth.<br />
“Believe in yourself and back yourself to<br />
come out on top. A fulfilling and successful<br />
business is waiting for those brave enough to<br />
pursue it” – Richard Branson<br />
The greatest gift we can give ourselves is<br />
self-belief. People around us will treat us<br />
how we treat ourselves. Often, I see<br />
intelligent, passionate and driven women<br />
hold themselves back because they lack that<br />
self-belief. They look for an external<br />
validation that they are strong enough, smart<br />
enough or creative enough to succeed. For<br />
years I was frustrated, knowing I had good<br />
ideas, and the potential to change lives yet<br />
my-self-belief was that I needed permission<br />
and for my ideas to be validated. Permission<br />
from my family, close friends and some<br />
business associates to validate that I was on<br />
the right path.<br />
